Sustainable Homelessness

Estimated Time: 7 - 10 Hours Over 1 - 3 Weeks

We need a volunteer to assist us in taking us through the steps to becoming a charity. Our aim is to empower the homeless community to enable them back to work and integrate into society. We want to offer half day work opportunities in odd jobs like lawn mowing and cleaning services. The other half of the day in an education environment to learn life skills, new opportunities, etc to help with community engagement, sustainable living and human development. This encompasses the needs and wants of our homeless community, finding the help services they need and creating a sustainable economic future for our homeless members. Our community group has done a lot of planing with a homeless leadership group. Other volunteers that have put in endless hours of ideas and application of those ideas. So next step is to become a charity with your skill and guidance.
