In the midst of bustling cities and bustling lives, a heart-wrenching reality persists: homeless children facing adversity on the streets. Deprived of stable shelter and warmth, these vulnerable young souls navigate a world of uncertainty. Stripped of the carefree innocence of childhood, they endure daily challenges, struggling to meet their basic needs. Homelessness casts a shadow over their dreams and aspirations, threatening their potential for a brighter future.

Since 1986, Family Gateway has helped thousands of families with children experiencing homelessness on their journeys to stability and positive housing. The need in our community is now greater than ever before. Pre-pandemic, approximately 30 new families per month required shelter in our community. This number has risen to an average of 50 new families per month over the last year, with many months including spikes of 60+ new families requiring shelter. In addition to our emergency shelter space, we are supporting 40+ families in overflow care who would otherwise be sleeping in their vehicles or on the streets.
This North Texas Giving Day, we need your help to:
Keep children and families from sleeping in their cars or on the streets.
Support children as they recover from the trauma of homelessness.
Continue housing families with children.
With your support, we will continue doing everything possible
to ensure no child sleeps outside.
Unlock hope, change lives! Embrace compassion at North Texas Giving Day with Family Gateway. Together, let’s build brighter futures!
