The Salvation Army of Greater Charlotte, a leader in providing solutions for families experiencing homelessness has received a $3.75 million dollar grant from the Bezos Day 1 Families Fund. Grants from the fund are annually awarded to organizations doing compassionate, needle-moving work to help families experiencing homelessness secure housing and achieve stability.
The overarching goal of The Salvation Army in Greater Charlotte is that family homelessness should be rare, brief and non-recurring. This investment from the Day 1 Families Fund will allow The Salvation Army to expedite growth plans and impact even more families in need.
This one-time, uniquely flexible grant will support The Salvation Army of Greater Charlotte in serving as a critical lifeline to families experiencing homelessness, who represent more than a quarter of the homeless population nationally. The plan is to use the grant to expand diversion and outreach programs, grow counseling and employment services, and create a flexible fund for short-term assistance. In addition, funds will help to renovate a recently purchased hotel now called Booth Commons.
