Help us raise $15,000 for people across Metro Detroit with urgent housing needs

About this Campaign

For the second year in a row, Community Housing Network is working together through the HandUp Detroit Collaborative to raise critical funds for people who are homeless. People seeking services often cross county and city lines, and these Detroit and Oakland County nonprofits often serve the same people who continue to seek help. By partnering with each other instead of competing, the HandUp Detroit Collaborative is creating a better way to meet the basic needs of people in our region experiencing poverty.

Funds raised will be used to support critical needs for which resources do not exist, such as:

  • security deposits
  • rental assistance
  • furniture, especially beds and mattresses
  • household appliances
  • utilities
  • transportation

Last year, your donations supported 61 families in need. Your donations will continue to be used to help people like Rodrick, Milan, and James:

I am raising money for a bedroom set so I can be comfortable in my new home. I have always lived with someone else and now I am finally moving into my first apartment. I want to give others hope just like the hope that was given to me." - Rodrick, Mariners Inn
Thank you to everyone who donated to my cause. My utilities are now on and I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. My children and I can live comfortably in our new home. Thank you again for your kindness." - Milan, Community & Home Supports
It is greatly appreciated that I have people taking an interest in my life that have been there to support me through the struggle that my homelessness presented for me...your donations allow me to continue to pay my utilities on time and therefore maintain stability in my housing." - James, South Oakland Shelter
