Annual Report 2023-24

HOMELESSNESS
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
Facebook Posts
Last year, 254 Alameda County residents called one of our shelters home. Half of them were children. No child deserves to be homeless or to witness family violence.
When you make a gift to Building Futures, youāre not only supporting programs and services for your neighbors who have endured homelessness and domestic violence. And youāre not just making a tax-deductible donation. You are changing futures for the better. Our childrenās program provides developmental assessments, health resources, fun and therapeutic activities, and school advocacy. Our staff members deliver these services with warmth and care. They deserve nothing less.
But we canāt do it without you. Will you send your special year-end gift now, while youāre thinking about it? Youāll be boosting a childās future.

As we approach the holidays, we are aware that high housing costs and rampant inflation mean more of our neighbors are losing their housing. When domestic violence is part of the picture, a struggling parent can feel hopeless and alone.
Your donation to Building Futures this month helps mothers like Tayana who was living in a violent household with her toddler daughter before calling our crisis line. We provided Tayana with shelter, education and resources, and so much more. Today, she and her daughter now have a safe place to call home.
ļ»æPlease send your generous gift today. Youāll be helping people like Tayana build better futures for themselves and their children.
