Our mission is to provide leadership and resources to address the consequences of homelessness in the Mar Vista Community and to provide those experiencing homelessness with access to services that lead to permanent housing. HOUSINGMV.org believes that the welfare of both our homeless people AND our community are important and compatible priorities. We feel that leaving homeless people to live on the street in a dysfunctional, unhealthy and vulnerable state is neither compassionate nor effective community policy. There are services and assistance available, but sometimes difficult to access. For those willing to improve their circumstances, we fund service organization(s) that can successfully connect those motivated individuals to services or resources to lift them out of homelessness. Because of these beliefs, we want our interested community members to understand the range and rationale for our services. To achieve this strategic mission, we rely upon the participation of the entire community. Support comes in all forms, from donors to committee members who make outreach possible, to representatives from local government and business whose partnership is invaluable. HOUSINGMV.org is deeply appreciative of all the support it receives from its community partners and welcomes anyone interested in finding solutions to homelessness related issues. We welcome all community members to Get Involved, at HOUSINGMV.org Hide full description Adults (18+), 55+ Recurring On-site Weekdays Individuals In-person, Outdoor, Collect Donations, Food Distribution Learn More
