🚨 We Need Our Community’s Help to Keep Our Office Open 🚨
We are one month behind on rent, another month is now due, and our annual state filing fees must also be paid this month. We are asking for help to meet these immediate obligations and keep the office open through the end of 2026.
Our office is not simply a place where we store supplies or complete administrative work. It is where we welcome people who need support and help them identify their next steps.
Community members come to our office to:
❤️ Access clothing, hygiene products, household necessities, and other items from our resource closet
❤️ Receive help finding food assistance, housing programs, counseling, and other local resources
❤️ Search and apply for jobs
❤️ Create or update résumés
❤️ Apply to colleges, schools, and training programs
❤️ Meet with volunteer social workers for support and, when available, mental health counseling
❤️ Sit down with someone who will listen without judgment and help them move forward
For many of the people we serve, this office is one of the few places where they can walk in, feel welcomed, and receive individualized help.
Our immediate expenses include:
🏠 One month of past-due rent: $850
🏠 The current month’s rent: $850
📄 Annual state filing fees due this month: $400
🌐 Internet service: $87 per month
After addressing these immediate bills, we hope to raise enough to continue paying the office rent (rent increases by $50 in September upon lease renewal), internet, website expenses, and other basic operating costs through the end of the year.
We have kept going for as long as possible, but we cannot protect this space without help from our community.
