Join the Project HOME community for the annual Lester Ross Memorial Ceremony at 10 a.m. on Friday, October 16, at Mount Peace Cemetery, 3111 West Lehigh Ave. in Philadelphia. This interfaith service will lay to rest Philadelphians whose lives were touched by homelessness.

We gather in honor of late members of our beloved community, Lester Ross and Michael Hinson, whose lives and legacies remind us that every human being deserves dignity and respect, at every moment of their journey.

Whether someone needs help staying hydrated, finding emergency shelter, or exploring options for supportive housing, Project HOME's outreach team is available to provide resources and support 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Call the Homeless Outreach Hotline at 215-232-1984 to get connected to an outreach coordinator anytime.
