The Mountain Projects Emergency Fund addresses urgent needs of neighbors in crisis. Generally, these folks need a stabilizing solution to avoid traumatizing situations for themselves and their families. Some recent examples include:
• A pregnant woman requesting weekend emergency shelter to avoid sleeping outside
• A Head Start family facing utility shut-off due to pandemic-related unemployment
• Meals for low-income senior citizens over weekends and holidays
• Home rehabilitation for individuals without running water or working toilets
• Diapers for babies whose parents are in-between paychecks
• A mattress for a veteran who lost all belongings in a house fire
On a daily basis, the Emergency Fund helps Mountain Projects clients resolve short-term crisis situations, so our staff can then help the client access life-changing services.
Mountain Projects also provides:
• Meals and food boxes for the food insecure
• Preschool for low-income families
• Heat & weatherization for people in need
• Housing rehabs that remedy unsafe housing
• Accessibility for seniors and the disabled
• Affordable housing for the essential workforce
• Substance abuse prevention services
• Access to affordable healthcare options
• Transportation for veterans, seniors, students and the disabled
Thank you! Your donations will help us through a challenging winter.
