ORGANIZATION: HIS COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS

  • 9 people are interested

HIS Coalition for the Homeless is a 501c3 that serves to bring awareness to the plight of the homeless and to complete the work our Lord asks us to do, "Love thy neighbor as thy self." We are currently looking for board members help us carry out our mission, grow our organization, and most importantly, strengthen the services we offer to our unhoused neighbors.

Applicants should have a heart for the plight of the homeless, be well-connected in the community; prior board experience recommended but not essential. Additionally, board members should have a shared vision of our short- and long-term projects:

  • Short-term goals include the establishment of an emergency church winter overnight shelter program;
  • Long-term goals include the development of a tiny home transitional supportive village.
We currently have 3 positions available. Board members are expected to adhere to ethical and legal standards set forth by the NYS Charities Bureau (training and additional information will be provided!). Monthly meetings occur on the second Thursday of every month from 1:30-3:00pm. If you are passionate about our mission but unable to commit to a board member position, please connect with us at hiscoalition@gmail.com to find out about other ways to support our "heart work"!

Mission Statement

To bring awareness to the plight of the homeless and to complete the work our Lord asks us to do, "Love thy neighbor as thy self."

Description

HIS Coalition for the Homeless is a grassroots organization whose mission is to "bring awareness to the plight of the homeless and to complete the work our Lord asks us to do, 'Love thy neighbor as thyself’". Through our needs-based homelessness outreach, coalition building, and advocacy efforts, members of HIS Coalition work toward achieving their vision of a world where everyone has access to safe, warm, and dignified shelter. HIS Coalition has been in existence since early 2022 and achieved 501c3 status as of May 24th, 2022.

Our short term goal is to provide a warm and safe shelter during the winter months. Our long term goal is to secure a property to provide individual temporary homes where individuals can recover and know that they are safe, loved and encouraged to move into a future filled with hope. Volunteers are needed! Join us on our journey to complete the work our Lord asks us to do. "Love your neighbor as yourself"
