There is a hidden crisis of family homelessness in our community. Thousands of low-income families are experiencing homelessness or are on the brink of eviction. They often sleep in their cars, couch surf, or live in other unsafe circumstances in an effort to protect their children from the reality of homelessness. We ask the community to join us in changing the lives of families experiencing homelessness and creating a brighter future for their children. You can be part of the solution to end family homelessness in our community by donating to The Salvation Army Austin on Day of Giving!

On Thursday, August 27, neighbors, businesses, churches, and community partners will come together to raise $1 million dollars to provide hope across Central Texas!
