Goal
Every tax-deductible dollar you donate to Feet Forward goes directly to providing life-saving hot meals, water, winter clothes and gear, and hygiene supplies for people experiencing homelessness in Boulder, CO.
Feet Forward empowers unhoused individuals in Boulder County by removing barriers to services and providing basic needs, such as food, clothing, and sustained peer-led advocacy and navigation. Our expertise comes from our lived experience with homelessness in Boulder.
Here's what we've accomplished in 2021.
- Every week we serve an average of 100 individuals experiencing homelessness
- Served over 4000 hot meals
- Distributed over 2000 pairs of socks
- Created over 300 connections to local partners, increasing service engagement and expediting housing processes that end homelessness.
- Provided an essential role in housing over a dozen individuals.
We create a trusting community for those currently experiencing homelessness and those who have exited out of it. Our lived experience in this community increases our trust and ability to connect with those we serve - from lending a trusted ear to assisting with housing lotteries, we know the system and how to navigate it. We are living examples that change is possible and can serve as realistic role models.
Feet Forward is a trusted partner that is being recognized for its effective work. The Common Sense Institute and the University of Colorado recently released a study called the Homelessness Ecosystem Analysis where they named Feet Forward as a an "Exemplar in Building Trust", and highlighted Feet Forward programs as best practice.
Every Tuesday, you can find us at Boulder's Central Park directly at the Bandshell from 2:30 to 4:00 pm.
