π THIS IS WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS π
We want to share what your support and a recent grant has made possible.
Every week, neighbors walk through our doors at Recovery Cafe Sullivan & Adam's House Of Hope facing an emergency they never saw coming.
Recently, it was a disabled veteran and her 75-year-old mother. They came to us because they can no longer safely stay in their home. The condition of the home has made it unsafe. No one should have to live like that, especially not a veteran who served our country and her elderly momma.
Because of the emergency assistance funding from United Way of the Wabash Valley, we were able to get them into a hotel for 4 nights. Four nights of safety. Four nights of not sleeping in a car. Four nights to breathe and figure out next steps.
But 4 nights isnβt a solution. And this is where we need our community.
What they need now is a safe, low-income apartment. We have been searching, calling, driving, trying to find a place with a small, affordable deposit that we can help cover to get them somewhere stable and safe. They both receive a small monthly income and can afford rent once they are able to secure a place.
The need for safe, affordable housing in Sullivan County is so real, and we are seeing families in similar situations almost weekly.
π’ HOW YOU CAN HELP:
1. Do you know of housing? Please comment below any and all subsidized housing, low-income apartments, or landlords in Sullivan, Shelburn, Dugger and surrounding areas that accept low income or have low deposits. We want to build a full resource list to help this family and the many others who come to us in crisis.
2. Help us fill the gap. Our United Way grant allowed us to get them safe for now, but the deposit and first monthβs rent is what will keep them safe long term. If you would like to donate toward emergency housing assistance for this family and others, you can donate directly to us. Every dollar goes right back into supporting those who come to us in need.
To our veteran and her mom, we see you. You are not alone.
And to United Way of the Wabash Valley, thank you for trusting us to be the hands and feet for our neighbors when emergency strikes. This grant is doing real, immediate good.
Please share this, please comment any housing resources, and please keep this family in your prayers as we work to get them home. π€π
