As this year comes to a close, please consider sending in a year-end gift so that we can finish this year strong. https://lnkd.in/gs4RQma We need your support now more than ever as we navigate this upcoming year as the landscape around us changes. Your steadfast support has allowed us to continue our compassionate care for this community through highs and lows, wars, and changing public priorities for more than a century. It is truly inspiring! We wanted to leave you in these last few days of 2024 with a few words of appreciation — from the people we serve. “I've been chronically homeless for 10+ years. I was housed in "Otto's Place" in Compass Housing. In the 8 months that I was housed there, my case manager, Madison Mullins, and program manager, Anthony Holley, were diligent and successful to get me permanent housing with the grace and mercy of God.” -Brian - 5-Star Review “A kickback place. Get your mail here, shower, wash clothes, charge your devices, and EAT. Shout-out to the staff cause they do really care. And they DO HELP!” -Luca - 5-Star Review “I experienced great growth here at Compass Housing Alliance. I’d like to say thanks to all the people that work there.” -James - 5-Star Review

From all of us here at Compass Housing Alliance, happy holidays! Working together, we have made another wonderful year possible for our guests and residents. Here are a few photos from some of the holiday celebrations we’ve put on for our community — with generous volunteer groups giving their time! Thank you so much.

"Our mission of providing emergency services, affordable housing, and support to our community’s most vulnerable is more important now than ever. The recent changes in our regional and national landscape present new challenges and new opportunities for us to make a meaningful impact." https://lnkd.in/grXFic7s Read more, and please consider giving to Compass Housing Alliance today!

Justin had been outside for nearly a decade before he found Compass. Read more about his journey on our blog. (Don't forget that your employer may match any contributions you make to a nonprofit like Compass!) https://lnkd.in/gZ8K5-9a

Loving this collab! 🙌 So cool to see our friends at One Roof Foundation and Climate Pledge Arena bringing star power to support local kids. Even better - some of our Compass families have little ones at this school! Small world, big impact.

Compass Housing Alliance would like to thank Gesa Community Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Gesa Credit Union, for selecting Compass Housing Alliance as a recipient of their Local Hero's Grant to support the Shoreline Veterans Center.     Shree Vigil, program manager at Shoreline Veterans Center, said, "We are so grateful for our community partners like Gesa Community Foundation / Gesa Credit Union for their generosity, which allows us to create an enriched community allowing those who have been disenfranchised to have a place they can call home." Shoreline Veterans Center serves 24 Veterans with disabilities who have experienced homelessness, providing a safe home and supportive community.   “Gesa is deeply honored to support the local heroes who make such a lasting impact in our community every year,” said Brandon Allison, AVP of Training, Education, and Community Relations at Gesa Credit Union. “The amazing work Compass Housing Alliance does not only helps build a stronger community but serves as an inspiration to all of us."

"People cared for my dad. They loved him. He finally had dignity after struggling for so much of his life." Your support helps us provide the care and the heart that so many of our residents need. Please consider giving a gift today so that our residents can experience the love and dignity they deserve. https://lnkd.in/ghgeCZ8B
