Help Empower Women Who are Homeless in Chicago

Project Report | Feb 10, 2020
21% increase in women housed!

By Anna Withers | Donor Relations Manager

21% increase in women housed

Thanks to the overwhelming support of staff, donors, volunteers, and our Board of Directors, Sarah's Circle was able to assist 110 women in finding homes in 2019! This is a 21% increase from the number of women housed in 2018.

The challenges for women facing homelessness are mounting as we continue to see a decline in the number of affordable housing units in Chicago, but Sarah's Circle is looking to the future to ensure that every woman in Chicago has a safe and permanent place to call home.

Along with housing more women in 2019, Sarah's Circle:

provided services to 763 women
served 310 women via our Interim Housing Program
provided case management to 526 participants
made available 73,000 nutritious meals to women in need

Thank you for your concern and compassion for women as they work hard to overcome homelessness and secure safe and permanent homes of their own.
