Homer Community Chest

Homer Community Chest
at The Homer Foundation

Through a network of community partners the Foundation’s new Homer Community Chest will provide emergency and bridge funding to support families with children in times of need, and other individuals as extraordinary circumstances might dictate. The emphasis is on providing an immediate response to individuals that are not currently being served by other agencies and programs, and for bridging a specific need, not on-going needs.
