Message from Shira
Hi, I'm Shira - home organizing expert, author, and speaker.
My work, helping thousands of people all over the world declutter and organize their homes, has made me acutely aware of the disparity between people who own more than they can manage, and others who don't have a home, or stuff to fill it with.
I am honored to partner with New Story, and passionate about their efforts to end global homelessness.
I am dedicating my donation efforts to my father, Jules Burstein, to honor his memory, and his legacy of activism and generosity.
Please join me in supporting this important mission.
- Shira (Team Captain)
Details
The Team
New Story is a nonprofit pioneering solutions to end global homelessness. The Neighborhood is New Story’s latest solution to help turn this vision into a reality.
The Neighborhood is a monthly giving program committed to safely housing the world’s most vulnerable families. Our first project as a community is to provide rent relief for U.S. families on the verge of homelessness due to COVID-19.
The Problem
Many families have lost their income due to COVID-19. The Neighborhood is making sure they don’t lose their homes, too. The families we’re supporting:
- Have children
- Were living in extreme poverty before COVID-19
- Lost their income due to COVID-19
- Are not eligible for rent moratoriums or government assistance
- Are days away from homelessness
The Process
The Neighborhood is teaming up with local partners to ensure 100% of your donation goes directly to keeping the most vulnerable families safely housed. The Neighborhood has found rent relief to be the most effective solution to keep our neighbors safely housed as well as preventing existing homeless shelters from being overpopulated.
The Impact
- You’re ensuring families stay safe in their own homes.
- Since 100% of your giving goes directly to rent relief, your impact is instant.
- When you give to housing, your impact stretches by touching many facets of life, such as health, education, and security.
- You will receive ongoing updates such as family impact stories.
- You will have full transparency from our team on every dollar donated, every partner involved, and every family supported.
