​Campaign Goal: $1M Capacity Building Campaign

Thanks to tremendous community support, Gathering for Women acquired our Day Center at 147 El Dorado Street on June 18th, 2018. However, funds were still needed to start operations, so GFW secured a mortgage for $682,500.

Thanks to our generous donors and excellent financial team, we have already paid over 50% of the mortgage in just a few short years. However, a balloon payment is due on October 24th, 2024.

Paying this balance off would allow GFW to provide expanded services to our growing number of homeless and housing insecure women and families on the Monterey Peninsula.

CAMPAIGN VISION

To better provide services to the growing number of homeless and housing insecure women and families in Monterey County and pay off our balloon mortgage balance.

What will we do with the funds?

Expand food service from 5 days to 6 days a week.
Increase assistance (car repairs, hotels during inclement weather, rental application fees, ID renewal fees, and more).
Prevent homelessness through rental assistance programs that keep women in their homes.
Provide additional wellness classes to promote mental and physical well being, including group therapy, yoga, meditation, financial literacy classes, and nutrition classes.
Add an additional case manager/housing navigator to our team to better support guests with an effective pathway out of homelessness.

Gathering for Women's Day Center

GFW's Program is vital to our guests' pathway to safety, security, and independence. Our Case Managers meet with each guest to determine their needs and make an individualized case plan to support their goals for housing, financial opportunities, health, and wellness.
"Words can not express how grateful I am for all the resources you provide for me and this community. 
​
You are now part of my story of success."
