Day 361: Deborah’s Place

Here we go! Back to my hometown, for donation on Day 361! Chicago is home to some really great organizations providing some integral services to our communities growth and well being. I have featured many of them along the way, but if I could I would feature them all. Day 361 goes out to Deborah’s Place, providing housing support for Chicago’s homeless women population.

Deborah’s Place is Chicago’s largest provider of supportive housing exclusively for women and is recognized as an innovative leader among homeless service providers locally and nationally. Since our founding in 1985, we have worked collaboratively with our participants, offered a range of high quality services and tried new approaches – putting Deborah’s Place at the forefront of agencies making a difference to those in need in Chicago.

Deborah’s Place breaks the cycle of homelessness for women in Chicago. Through a continuum of housing options, comprehensive support services and opportunities for change provided by dedicated volunteers and staff, women succeed in achieving their goals of stable housing, sustainable income and greater self-determination.

Amount Donated: $5
