#GivingTuesday: 3 ways to give to Tedford Housing during the holiday season!

November 27, 2018 By Rota Knott Leave a Comment

#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration. #GivingTuesday also kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving. Following are 3 ways to give to Tedford Housing during the holiday season!

1. Give to our Annual Fund

Tedford Housing believes that everyone deserves to have a safe and affordable home. With the help of our diverse supporters, we are able to provide pathways from homelessness to home to those neighbors in our community that need it. Please consider a gift to our annual fund before the year ends. You can give securely online via our website or mail your donation to Tedford Housing, P.O. Box 958, Brunswick, ME 04011.

 

2. Donate Gifts to the Christmas Store

Tedford Housing is partnering with Pathway Vineyard Church once again to make the Christmas Store available to families in need. Last year, a whopping total of 205 individuals that Tedford serves benefited from this partnership. Click on the image to view the wish list for this year’s Christmas Store. To support our families during the holidays or to set up a donation drop off, contact Jennifer at 207-729-1161 #101 or email. Read More

Will You Give to Tedford Housing on #GivingTuesday?

November 28, 2017 By Rota Knott Leave a Comment

“Home is wherever there is family, friends, understanding and love.” ~ Patrick, shelter guest

What does “home” mean to you? To many of Tedford’s emergency shelter guests, supportive housing tenants and homeless prevention clients, home means safety, love and hope.

And yet so many of our neighbors – adults, teens and whole families – live without the simple comfort of a stable roof over their heads. Some may be facing eviction or temporarily living in their cars, while others may be couch surfing or staying at our emergency shelter as they search for affordable housing.

All of our neighbors deserve to have a safe and affordable place to call home.

Tedford Housing received gifts from more than 500 individual supporters last year. These donations are critical for us to continue to respond to the growing needs of our community members. Will you join our generous donors in supporting Tedford Housing’s efforts to guide our neighbors from homeless to home?

Tedford Housing has responded to the needs of the community for 30 years. We are now serving more people outside of our facilities with homeless prevention services – 450 indviduals last fiscal year – than in our emergency shelters and supportive housing. There are many successes to celebrate, like the 81% of families who found permanent housing after exiting from our family shelter or the 39 month average length of stay by previously homeless individuals in our six supported apartments, both numbers well over national averages.

If you have already made a gift to Tedford Housing this year, we thank you. If not, we hope you will join us in our mission to find lasting solutions to the challenges of homelessness. You can donate securely online at weblink.donorperfect.com/tedfordhousing.

Sincerely,

 

Craig Phillips, Executive Director

 

Andree Appel, Board President
