Wear Purple for Homelessness Awareness
2023-11-15 | MD
Homelessness is one of the most consequential social issues that can affect a community, with economic, safety, and public health implications wherever homelessness is present. Harford County is no different.

Did you know…

…in the ‘22-’23 school year, 563 Harford County Public School students qualified for homelessness services
…Harford Family House served 39 families (including 81 children) at its HFH Family Shelter in Aberdeen
…Harford Family House served 360 individuals (including 27 veterans) at its HFH Welcome One Shelter in Belcamp

Please help us spread awareness about homelessness in Harford County by wearing purple on Wednesday, November 15, 2023! Organize your family, friends, co-workers, classrooms, groups, etc. and help us say YES! Homelessness DOES exist in Harford County, and Harford Family House is there to make a difference in the lives of those experiencing homelessness, and thus the community as a whole.

Host a Donation Drive for Harford Family House
2023-11-01 00:01 - 2023-11-30 23:55 | MD
ATTENTION LOCAL FAITH-BASED COMMUNITIES, BUSINESSES, SCHOOLS, SPORTS TEAMS, AND GROUPS OF ALL SORTS!
November is Homelessness Awareness Month and this year’s theme is “It’s Bigger Than Us – Investing in the Future of Our Community.” In that vein, we are hoping to recruit various segments of the community to help spread awareness, as the implications of homelessness in our community affect us all.

Last fiscal year we served 39 families (including 81 children) and 360 individuals (including 27 veterans). As you may know, it takes a lot of resources to get our residents on their feet and on the path to long-term independence and stable housing, and much of their immediate needs are the simple things we take for granted. Would you be willing to help us?

We are asking local faith-based communities, businesses, schools, sports teams, and groups of all sorts to host supply drives throughout the month of November. Our current supply needs are listed here: https://harfordfamilyhouse.org/how-you-can-help/wish-list/

One more, exciting thing. We have designated November 28th as the official donation-drop off day. We invite you to our HFH Family Shelter in Aberdeen to drop off donations between 12pm-4pm, enjoy refreshments, meet our staff and mingle with fellow members of the community who decided to make a difference too.

For a flyer to share with family and friends, or a social media image and verbiage to share digitally, contact Vashelle Nino at vnino@harfordfamilyhouse.org. Thank you!
