Our Mission

At Homeful Casa, our mission is to combat homelessness by transforming public generosity into lasting solutions. We strive to provide safe, sustainable housing for individuals and families while fostering personal growth through comprehensive support services, including job training, mental health resources, and community integration. By addressing the root causes of homelessness and promoting a culture of opportunity and donation, we aim to build stronger communities where everyone has the chance to thrive.

Together, We Can End Homelessness

With your monthly gift of only $13, you will be part of a solution everyone longs for - homeless and homeful alike.

The Story of 13

To us , the number 13 represents hope, strength, and unity—it's a number deeply rooted in the foundation of our nation. From the 13 original colonies that formed our country, to the 13 stripes on our flag, to the 13 olive branches and arrows on the Great Seal, it symbolizes resilience and new beginnings. That's why I'm asking you to donate just $13 to Homeful Casa. Together, we can turn this lucky number into a symbol of change, helping provide homes and support to those in need. Let's make 13 a number that builds brighter futures!

Every day, over 14,000 Arizonans—our neighbors, veterans, single parents, even children—face the harsh reality of life without a home. I know hardship's sting; I left a toxic family at 16 and lived in a VW bus for years, resilient but alone until good men showed me belonging. At Homeful Casa, I believe no one should endure that struggle solo—not the thousands I see on our streets, each with a story like mine.

We're on a mission to create lasting change, providing housing, hope, and tools to rebuild lives—drawing from my own journey through handyman missteps and self-taught coding to support my wife and kids, who taught me home is more than walls. But I can't do it without you. Your generosity doesn't just offer a roof—it restores dignity, builds stability, and lifts people toward their potential, just as I was lifted.

With your help, we can turn compassion into action and transform lives—one family at a time. Every donation pushes us closer to erasing homelessness in Arizona, a cause my family and I hold dear. Together, let's make a home a reality for everyone, not a distant dream.
