| What is My Father's House? |
My Father's House Community Services
is a nonprofit organization dedicated to programming and advocacy
for those who are experiencing homelessness, have a low income or
who are struggling and underserved in some other way. The organization
was founded in 2003 and opened it's first housing program, a transitional
housing project, in 2006. Currently our catchment area for services
is Miami and Linn counties in Kansas but the organization has plans
to grow it's programming and catchment area into additional rural
areas as its capacity for providing services increases.  |
| My Father’s House Community Services is a nonprofit organization [IRS 501(c) 3] that exists for underserved and/or low income individuals and families. |

| Why People Give |
I want to help others. I can connect with my community. I feel involved. I get to contribute to a cause that I care about. I feel better about myself. I can build a sense of responsibility. I needed help in my past and now I can help others. I can make a difference!
