Make a donation
I'm raising funds to build a new beginning- not for just myself, but for every soul I met on the streets.
The $100,000 will go toward:
* Helping unhoused individuals get birth certificates and IDs, which are critical for jobs, housing, and healthcare
* Creating sanitation access areas for hygiene, safety, and dignity
* Launching a shelter and free restaurant to serve meals, provide rest, and restore hope
This isn't just a campaign- it's a mission to rise, restore, and rebuild. With your help, Rising Above Homelessness will be a movement of healing, access, and
real change.
Every dollar brings someone closer to home.
