Join us and connect with people like Patrice, a neighbor who has come close to experiencing homelessness herself and recently rallied nearly 60 friends and family members to stand by us and by our clients. Through her Cajun Crawfish Carnival, she raised nearly $4,000 for Health Care for the Homeless. Or talk to someone like Ruth, a little girl who had a stroke earlier this year and when asked what people from out of town could do to support her, she said donations to Health Care for the Homeless.
