The Orange county burrito project

A Cause Worth Fighting For

Southern California's homeless population has reached a critical point currently outnumbering all available shelter beds at a ratio of approximately 10:1 and with the latest numbers showing that homelessness is on the rise. 
​
We're here to change that!  Empowering members of the community to come out and share a moment with our homeless neighbors while being an active part of their recovery.

But sharing these moments is only a small part of what we hope to accomplish.  With your help we can mobilize desperately needed intensive case management services and create environmentally sustainable whole person care centers to fill the gaps in existing services.

What Our Future Looks Like

Following the success of our Community Street Outreach events, where thousands of volunteers hand delivered over 8,000 burritos to the homeless of Orange County; alongside thousands of bottles of water, hygiene kits, articles of clothing & pairs of shoes; we aim to continue these community based events as a means to provide direct aid to our homeless neighbors and to educate the public about how our community can change the status quo.
Dreaming bigger than just burritos, our goal is to provide our homeless neighbors with field based intensive case management services focussed on whole person care addressing mental + physical health, substance abuse, job and vocational skills training, housing navigation and retention, legal-aid services, as well as basic life skills support to create a pathway to self-sufficiency.
