It takes an informed village.

The homeless crisis is a complex problem it takes an engaged community to solve it. That’s why The Giving Spirit continues to prioritize a trailblazing approach to homelessness by building understanding and community involvement through innovative educational programming for individuals, groups, and businesses.

Our Mission

To address daily survival and the truths that cause homelessness we focus on the first mile

The Giving Spirit provides direct tangible aid and educates communities on how workable solutions informed by direct community engagement and our common humanity can alleviate and ultimately end homelessness leading the “first mile” of care and learning.

The first mile of care provides immediate, tangible aid to the unhoused by serving through direct outreach in the form of diverse “survival kits” containing essential life-sustaining aid  

The first mile of learning, engages, and educates individuals, businesses and communities through curated platforms on the human face of homelessness, its myths and realities. Our programming brings faces, stories and powerful relevant data to better inform communities on the root causes of homelessness.
