HomeAid Sacramento builds and renovates temporary, transitional and permanent housing for homeless children, women, men, veterans, and families who have experienced a life-altering event and are rendered temporarily homeless. Our goal is to enable them to take the critical steps toward achieving lives of self-sufficiency. As the charitable arm of the North State Building Industry Association, our work is made possible through the generosity of homebuilders, their trader partners, financial institutions, and individuals like you.
Unlike any time in America's history, today's homeless are often children, women, and families. Contrary to popular belief, the majority of today's homeless are not the people seen on the street. They are the "invisible homeless" who are without a place to live due to unforeseen life circumstances (e.g. job loss, natural disaster, divorce, abuse, foreclosure or a medical condition) — situations that could affect anyone.
Think for a moment about the following situations: the mother who left an abusive relationship to protect her children; the father who moved his family to a transitional housing facility because he had to choose between rent and his child's cancer medicine; the pregnant teen who has nowhere to go and no one to turn to; the family without a home because everything was lost in a fire...these are the people served by HomeAid Sacramento.
HomeAid Sacramento's Mission is to help people experiencing or at risk of homelessness build new lives through construction, community engagement and education.
Contributions to our mission of providing dignified housing opportunities to those who need them are critical to building second chances. Your support makes it possible to apply our resources where they are needed the most, along with support for our project management teams, which ultimately spearhead the design and construction phases of the projects we take on.
Our shelter provider partners are in need of new or gently used essential housing items that help to liven up a new home. Our services are primarily focused on the renovation or construction of shelter facilities, but there is nothing like new furniture to offer a sense of dignity to those seeking to rebuild their lives. Please note that HomeAid itself is unable to accept donations of furniture or clothing, except on a limited, case by case basis. However, the shelter providers for whom we build facilities may require assistance with items needed to complete their new or renovated buildings, including such items as furniture, sheets and towels, bedding, etc. HomeAid can put you in touch with those service providers.
Please consider signing up for or supporting our CARES volunteer events, including "Painting a Better Tomorrow" events, and/or our Annual Spread the Warmth Blanket Drive. Given the scope of the work we engage in annually, we can always use more support and would be happy to discuss your involvement in any of these community uplift programs.
