Simply put inflation is the continuous increase in the cost of goods and services. We all see it in our day-to-day activities with the cost of gasoline, meat and I noticed even batteries! But did you know that inflation is affecting the impact of government funding that our agency as well as other non-profits depend on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As stated by the National Association to End Homelessness, \u201cOver the last 10 years, homeless services funding nearly doubled (increasing by 96 percent)\u2026After accounting for inflation, the 96 percent increase in homelessness funding really only amounts to a 43 percent boost.\u201d That\u2019s a significant decrease in the impact these dollars are intended to support\u2026our most vulnerable community members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Inflation is increasing the cost of living, which increases community need and at the same decreases the impact of the government funding set aside to help those experiencing homelessness or who are at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is why we and other organizations need the support of you, individual and corporate donations, to help offset this decrease in government assistance due to inflation. Won\u2019t you help\u2026it means so much to us and to our neighbors, friends and families that we serve every day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
