Giving Day is Coming!
2/19/26
291 acts of care.
One community.
On February 19th, our community is coming together for Giving Day—a 24-hour moment to show what’s possible when care is shared.
Our goal is 291 individual donors, honoring the 291 neighbors who were supported through housing, eviction prevention, rental assistance, and street outreach in 2025. When we reach this milestone, The Lawrence A. Appley Foundation will donate an additional $20,000 to further our mission.
In a year marked by housing instability and rising costs, your support helps neighbors facing homelessness and hardship move forward with dignity. Through our five programs, the Food Pantry, The Women’s Room, Street Outreach and Housing, Eviction Prevention and Rental Assistance, and the Bad Weather Shelter, Friends In Deed meets people where they are when they need it most.
Giving Day isn’t about the size of your gift. It’s about showing up, together.
Be one of the 291. Make an act of care on February 19th.
