Beacon Interfaith

Beacon is an interfaith collaborative of congregations ending homelessness through housing, shelter and advocacy.

Our Congregations »
Our goal is to develop 1,000 homes by 2020 with your support. Since 2003 we have created or preserved almost 500 homes for about 800 people: families, youth and adults.

Become An Advocate »
There are many ways to help end homelessness. By offering opportunities that will work for any commitment level, Beacon makes it easy to make a difference.
