For more than 40 years, Connections for the Homeless has served and catalyzed our community to end homelessness, one person at a time. Each year we provide eviction prevention, shelter, and housing services to 5,000 people from across north suburban Cook County. Beyond providing direct services we also operate a robust advocacy and community organizing program to address the root causes of homelessness. The COVID pandemic accelerated our growth in the depth and breadth of services we offer and the organizational infrastructure to sustain this highly impactful organization. Connections is a radically reshaped organization deeply committed to demonstrating our core values in all relationships with participants, colleagues, donors, partners, and volunteers.
Homesharing provides financial resilience and companionship to both homeowners and homeseekers. HomeShare Oregon helps make your homesharing journey easier and we believe homesharing is a direct way to prevent housing instability, foreclosure, and homelessness.
Silvernest is creating a more modern, well-matched generation of roommates. The result? Extra income, expanded community, and Home Sweet Shared Home®.
Silvernest is an online homesharing platform that pairs homeowners with compatible housemates and gives them everything they need to create a Home Sweet Shared Home.
Homesharing through Silvernest helps homeowners earn extra income (about $10,000 a year) and remain in their homes longer. Renters pay far less than market rent, saving an average $9,000 per year. Both enjoy companionship and the efficiencies that come with sharing a space.
Opening your home to a compatible housemate can change your life. Learn more at www.silvernest.com.
