How Can I Help?

“How can I help?” could be the most popular question from our friends and community supporters. And it’s one of our favorites!

HELP DURING DIFFICULT TIMES
Residents of Jolie, Villa Norte, and The Pines Apartments are navigating extremely difficult times. So many kind-hearted individuals and groups are reaching out to Providence House and offering their time, talent, and treasure to help their community neighbors during this crisis.

As a leader of the Emergency Apartment Relocation Program, Providence House is prepared to accept donations on behalf of the affected residents. All donations received (in-kind and monetary) will be restricted specifically for these residents.

When you consider giving, think of what you would need if suddenly forced to move out of your residence with little to no time to prepare. Below are items we know will help.
