Director’s Update
It is 6 months since we officially transferred to Kindness Between Friends!
In these 6 months we have been able to assist 289 clients!
Needs vary from - Rent/Mortgage-36 Food-47 Emergency Shelter-23 Utilities-12 Housing-26 Other (Assistance with car repairs, vet, bills, etc.) 57 Resources - all
That number may not seem high to most, however we are a small VOLUNTEER organization and rely on private donations and fundraisers to sustain us.
The majority of our clients are referred from agencies such as BCOC, FISH, local hospitals & police departments. All are vetted, and if we have funding, we assist where we can.
This opportunity is only achievable through the kindness of our community members! We are deeply grateful for your support, enabling us to pursue our passion and continue to make a difference! We are community members helping community members!
