The work we do is made possible by you, our beloved community partners
in Buffalo. Your support ensures that we can continue supporting individuals experiencing homelessness and providing them with all the resources they need to thrive. At My Place Home for the Homeless, we are committed to being good stewards of your donations. As a growing organization, we have several expansion goals we would like to achieve in the coming years. Your support helps us continue to do this life-saving work and move towards our future goals.
Convert our lower-level space into a women’s shelter to improve accessibility, comfort, and functionality while maintaining full ADA compliance.
Hire more staff to support expansion; including a dedicated kitchen staff and bring more employment opportunities to the east side.
Expand our in-house services; addition of a computer lab, private visitation room.
Expand our transportation services for clients by purchasing our own vans.
There are many ways you can support us in our work to combat homelessness; volunteers are integral to our functioning as a non-profit organization. At My Place Home for the Homeless, we believe in ensuring our volunteers are engaged in ways they find meaningful, and catered to their personal strengths, and passions. If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out the form below and someone will be in contact with you soon to discuss your personal connection, and interest in our mission, and the ways in which you would be interested in contributing.
In addition to monetary donations, we do accept donations of lightly used or new clothing, new/unused socks and undergarments, as well as other items. Reach out directly to info email if you are interested in donating material items. Another great option for material donations is to visit our Amazon wishlist, which is updated regularly with items we need replenished at the shelter on a regular basis
