Volunteer: Donate a building to a Nonprofit Providing Jobs & Housing to People in our Impoverished Communities
📋 Role Overview & Responsibilities
We are a nonprofit 501c3 Corporation providing support services, economic resources, transitional housing, and empowerment to women & children impacted by domestic violence, sexual assault, homelessness, prostitution & human trafficking, and other crippling life experiences. Our organization is built upon uplifting and empowering women from all walks of life, reminding them of their worth and importance in the world. We provide services to over 1000 women and children annually.
Housing, living wage employment, and health and well-being are all vital components to living and essential to women, men, and families in poverty who fight and struggle daily to survive; to change their environments, and to grow in their lives.
Courageous Women Association has developed a plan that will bring approximately 50 women and men to start, out of poverty and into full self-sufficiency by taking care of their housing and job needs, and providing the resources and supportive services necessary for healthy living and recovery. Each year, we will increase our numbers until everyone has a fighting chance to live in victory and productivity!
We are asking for the Public’s help! We need a building to be donated to our nonprofit, in order to carry out our mission that can help build a future to hundreds of people in our impoverished Bay Area communities. If you or someone you know, has surplus properties in the Bay Area, that can be donated or sold to our nonprofit for major TAX and Other Credits and Benefits, please call us!
In 16 years of work in the Bay Area communities, giving away life necessities, teaching career development, providing resources and supportive services, we’ve rented space or brought our services direct to shelters and agencies that support women, men, and children who are victims of homelessness, domestic violence, human trafficking, incarceration, and addiction.
We are pushing further in our work to restore and improve the quality of life of impoverished people throughout the Bay Area.
You’ve heard the old adage, "Home is where the heart is"? Well if you donate a "home" (building) to CWA, it will become the "heart" and hub for living wage jobs, housing, and resources to those living in our impoverished communities.
CWA is the recipient of the prestigious CBS 5 News Jefferson Award, Congressional Certificate from Congresswoman Barbara Lee, and Oakland Mayoral Proclamation. Contact us at info@courageouswomen.org, or 510-273-2412.
This is a volunteer opportunity provided by VolunteerMatch, in partnership with LinkedIn for Good.
