You can be a part of ending homelessness
in this community.
Connections for the Homeless serves as a safety net for neighbors who need support to maintain safe, stable housing in Evanston and northern Cook County.
Make a gift that supports your community.
Your financial contributions and in-kind donations have an immediate impact on neighbors in need. Our effectiveness depends on support from people like you who want to make a difference.
Volunteer your time for good
More than 1,600 volunteers advance our mission each year by cooking meals, sorting donations, and building community with residents. Learn more about how positive and enduring change can start with a sandwich.
Use your voice to make a difference
Advocates and allies advance our mission by supporting policies that will expand housing opportunities for all. We take the idea of housing as a human right and advocate for it at the local, state, and federal levels.
