In June and July, Cane Cares’ $10,000 in funding for People Assisting The Homeless helped yet another 5 individuals with housing needs ranging from rental assistance to moving to utilities. In total, our funding for PATH this year has helped 31 people find housing, employment and stability.
Case manager Larry Major Jr. shared yet another moving and powerful example of how this funding benefits those who need it most: “A 52-year-old woman who had been living in her vehicle with her four children for almost a year…received help finding childcare and [employment]. The outreach case manager also assisted her in finding a unit for her family to move into. Cane Cares provided financial assistance for the first month’s rent and the security deposit for the new home.”
We’re overjoyed by the impact we’ve been able to make by partnering with PATH, and we look forward to working with them again in the future.
In the shorter term, Cane Cares is preparing for our annual charity golf tournament on September 20th, where we hope to raise an even more impressive round of funding to continue making a difference across San Diego. Register now to help us continue changing lives!
