CFSA has collective community giving funds called Impact Funds that serve urgent and emerging needs of at-risk and/or vulnerable community members, including a Housing Impact Fund that supports programs and organizations that address housing insecurity and homelessness. (Click the link above to contribute to this fund.) These collective funds are then pooled and granted out to support areas such as local shelters, cooling stations, family support programs, home repair, rental assistance and more.
