Hope & Housing Alliance

Be the Key to Ending Homelessness
Help Us Raise $350,000!

WISEPlace has a goal of raising $350,000 to assist 35 additional people in need through these critical times. But we can’t do it without you. The need is great. As a member of the Hope & Housing Alliance, you are the key to hope and housing for vulnerable, unaccompanied individuals in our OC community.

Unfortunately, statistics show that the individuals we serve are 5-10 times more likely to be assaulted on the streets and are in desperate need of WISEPlace shelter, housing solutions and wrap-around services. Your support helps vulnerable people experiencing homelessness, like Leslie, get back on their feet again.

WISEPlace takes a comprehensive approach to ending homelessness. The WISEPlace Way includes supportive services such as counseling, employment assistance, financial planning and addiction recovery helping our participants be well-prepared for long-term success.
