Homelessness doesn't take a season off. Neither does Dallas LIFE.
This September 17, your gift to Dallas LIFE is matched — up to $100,000, already committed. Give once, and your support goes twice as far for the men, women, children, veterans, and families rebuilding their lives here.
A hot meal. A safe bed. A door that opens at the hardest moment of someone's life. For a man, woman, or family arriving at Dallas LIFE in downtown Dallas, that first night matters. What happens next matters more.
Dallas LIFE is the largest homeless recovery center in North Texas, and for 70 years it has offered far more than a place to sleep. Through the Homeless No More program, residents work a Christ-centered path back to stability over 10 months, with counseling, medical and dental care, job readiness, and a community that believes in them. More than 500 people rely on Dallas LIFE each day. Parents keep their children close in one of 54 family rooms. Veterans find care built for what they carry.
The need doesn't pause between the holidays. The family that arrives tonight will still be here in November, still doing the hard work of starting over. Your Giving Day gift is what makes the other eleven months possible.
Recovery, not just a bed. Most shelters can offer a night. Dallas LIFE offers a way forward. The Homeless No More program runs 10 months and treats the roots of homelessness, not only its symptoms, so recovery holds.
Families stay together. Homelessness pulls families apart. Dallas LIFE keeps them together, with 54 family rooms, a licensed child development center, and care for children through KidsLIFE.
Dallas LIFE provides a Christ-centered path to lasting recovery, restoring dignity and rebuilding lives for men, women, and families experiencing homelessness in North Texas.
Early giving opens August 27. On Thursday, September 17, join all of North Texas as the region gives together in a single day. Every online gift reaches Dallas LIFE through Communities Foundation of Texas, so 100 percent of what you give online supports recovery right here at home.
You're not rescuing anyone. You're standing with people who are rebuilding — and that's what makes it last.
Homelessness does not have to be permanent. With you, it isn't.
Our mission is to guide homeless men, women & children to lives of permanent self-sufficiency through counseling, education, medical services, and provision of basic needs, as part of a comprehensive, faith-based recovery program, Homeless No More.
Dallas LIFE does not discriminate based on race, religion, socio-economic background, sexual orientation or any other reason.
