Community Outreach

HomeAid Colorado brings together construction-industry professionals and affiliates to complete construction projects and provide critical resources to non-profit care providers who assist those in our community at a high risk of homelessness. The local construction industry and our affiliates are a diverse and caring group that seeks to give back to the community that we love. By working together and pooling our resources we are able to provide critically needed resources and construction industry job training to local non-profits, allowing them to focus on individual care and support services.

 

Builders For Babies Diaper Drive

In normal times, one in three families across Colorado has limited access to clean diapers. As our economy rebounds from the international health crisis, many parents are faced with the difficult decision between buying groceries or clean diapers. HomeAid believes that all babies deserve clean diapers and that’s why our Builders for Babies Diaper Drive is more important than ever before.

 

Share the Warmth

Many in our community at high risk of homelessness, and those who are currently homeless, find themselves in need of basic essentials to stay safe and warm during the winter. From October through November we work together to collect hats, gloves, scarves and socks in order to meet a critical need and provide the warmth of care and community to our most vulnerable neighbors.

HomeAid WORKS

Through a partnership with the Colorado Homebuilding Academy, the HomeAid WORKS Program provides construction training and job opportunities in the construction industry to people experiencing, at risk of, or exiting homelessness. The HomeAid WORKS program provides the clients of our non-profit care provider partners with construction skills, career support and ultimately meaningful employment in the construction industry, increasing their likelihood of permanently exiting homelessness while addressing our community’s ongoing construction labor shortage.

Welcome Home Baskets

As grateful as temporarily homeless families are to move into a new home, it can be challenging to do so with very few resources. In order to make the move into a home as seamless as possible, HomeAid provides Welcome Home Baskets which include household goods, cleaning products, and hygiene items.
