Anthony from Chicago, IL

Just moved into permanent housing! I need household items like bedding & a microwave.

I was homeless and now volunteer working to eradicate homelessness in Chicago. Now that I'm housed myself I need a few basics for my home.

Anthony has a Happy Home Jun 11, 2015

With the Benevolent funds, Anthony was able to buy dishware and other basic house supplies. It has made a world of difference for his mental and physical health. He is extremely grateful to Benevolent and his donors. Thank you!

Overview

I am 53 years old and have 16 years in social service experience. I was chronically homeless for 4 years and I have recently received permanent housing with the help of Inspiration Corporation.

In the long term, I hope to finish my degree in Liberal Arts and Sciences. I currently volunteer at the Chicago Coalition for the Homeless and I am hoping that with my degree I can continue to work in eradicating homelessness in Chicago.

Having just received housing in the past month, there are a few items I need to help make my house a home. Bedding, lamps, a microwave, and other household necessities are just a few things that will considerably improve my new living quarters.

Having these items will create a comfortable environment that will help me move forward and achieve my educational and employment goals.

Anthony has been a client at Inspiration Corporation for 3 years; I know him through the supportive services program. He is a giving and positive individual, and has been an absolute pleasure to work with. It would be tremendous if Benevolent could help him achieve his goals.
