Safety and Shelter Fund
Downeast Maine has a significant and increasing number of individuals experiencing homelessness. Multiple organizations are attempting to address this social crisis. There is urgency due to the hostile weather conditions we experience in Maine this time of year. Healthy Acadia is raising Safety and Shelter Funds in order to support individuals and provide essential resources to keep as many community members as safe as possible. Some of the ways in which the funds will be utilized include purchases of sleeping bags, tents, and other life saving necessities; emergency shelter, placement in local vacant rentals, transportation to safe spaces, and much needed access to communication devices. Please consider making a donation to keep our neighbors alive and safe during these frigid winter months.
