Humanize Homelessness

💙 Big news — and we need you! 💙
Since 2018, Humanize Homelessness has been helping connect neighbors and support nonprofits that serve the unhoused.

We’ve just been invited to collaborate with a global digital engineering company, known for innovation and enterprise transformation, to design repeatable, measurable ways to support nonprofits serving the unhoused.

👏 Kudos to this multinational for choosing to invest in the very communities where they serve their customers.

To meet this opportunity, we’re expanding our volunteer team:

👉 Leadership roles (5–8 hrs/week)
👉 Supporting roles (2–4 hrs/week or per-event)
