Project Connects Vital Services to Homeless
More than 150 individuals and families experiencing homelessness were connected to essential health and human services through Valley of the Sun United Way’s Project Homeless Connect on Tuesday, June 17 at the North Hills Church.  Those in attendance received basic need items such as food, clothing and sunscreen as well as access to a variety of health and human services with the aspiration of helping them get back on the road to self-sufficiency.  The one-day outreach event was made possible by volunteers from Valley of the Sun United Way, North Hills Church, their partner agencies and other members of the community.  

“This is a great way to bring individuals experiencing homelessness together to maximize our impact in the community,” stated Brian Spicker, Valley of the Sun United Way Senior Vice President of Community Impact.  “Each individual in attendance walked away with at least one key resource to help them tackle this issue they face every day.”

Project Homeless Connect was hosted by Valley of the Sun United Way as a way to help the nearly 8,000 individuals and families throughout Maricopa County experiencing homelessness. The event is made possible through Results That Matter, Valley of the Sun United Way’s Community Fund.
