BOOTSTRAP VILLAGES NPO

Description

Bootstrap Villages’ vision is to create a nationwide network of safe, healthy, and drug-free environments where people can live with dignity, learn, and walk into a brighter future. We build and maintain low cost, small community villages for the unhoused, unserved, or under-served homeless and low income population. Our organization is unique, and allows us to serve the homeless youth, single adults, unmarried couples, elderly, and pets-those who sometimes cannot find help in other traditional housing services.

Benefits of our program:

• A safe, secure and stable home base
• Privacy
• Occupational/employment opportunities and services
• Builds independence, and self-determination
• Encourages contribution to the village and local community
• Opportunities for personal growth and empowerment
• No religious organization requirements

Additionally it will have:

• A partnership with a local community center with access to classrooms and other services such as laundry facilities
• Green space for gardens and outdoor activities
• Opportunities for recreation, education, and socialization outside work hours
