Mission Statement
Family Promise of San Gabriel Valley exists to help families experiencing or at risk of homelessness achieve sustainable independence through a community-based approach.
Description
Family Promise of San Gabriel Valley relies almost solely on volunteer support and provides shelter and meals for homeless children and their families. The families stay one week at a time in different congregations in the San Gabriel Valley area. Volunteers provide nutritious breakfast, lunch and dinners for the family, as well as fun activities to do while the families are staying in the program. Volunteers also spend the night in the congregations with the families and donate goods and professional services that enable to families to prosper both in the program and upon graduation. In addition, there are volunteer opportunities to serve as a tutor, workshop facilitator, support the administrative functions of the office, social media manager, event planning, or use your professional skills in HR, finance, communications, fund development and other non-profit functions on a committee.
