Have you heard of oneROOF’s Host Homes program?

Host Homes provides youth experiencing or at risk of homelessness with a safe, supportive place to stay for a short period of time — helping divert them from the shelter system while they work toward their goals alongside oneROOF staff.

✨ A spare room can become a safe place.
🤝 A welcoming home can create stability.
💙 Your support can help a young person move forward.

Do you have an extra room and want to make a meaningful difference in the life of a youth? We’re looking for Host Homes providers in our community! We’d love to connect with you!

📧 Email [email protected] to learn more about becoming a Host Homes provider!

“I am living proof that homelessness and addiction are not the end of someone’s story.”

Meet Cherisa – Cherisa was accessing services at oneROOF when she had nowhere to turn. oneROOF played a part in her story. Our staff encouraged her, supported her, and gave her the services she needed.

It’s because of donors like you that we are able to be there for the youth in our community when they need it most.

The Impact Circle is a group of compassionate monthly donors who believe that one youth on the street is one too many. From August 24 - September 4, we have a goal of doubling our monthly donors so we can better plan for the future and continue providing life-changing services.

Will you partner with us to help us change the futures of youth in KW?
