When you see people in need…

WHAT IS LOCAL CHANGE?

Have you ever come across someone in serious need - an old man with a “will work for food” sign, a mother and daughter appearing uncertain as to where they will get their next meal, or an entire embankment of makeshift tents - like most of us, you feel a deep need to help. You think…

Maybe I can spare a dollar? Ugh, I hardly carry any cash with me anymore:(

No wait, I found some pocket change. But will it be put to good use?

And, is handing cash to a stranger gonna be safe?

You know, I’ll just commit to making a more sizable donation to a charity that addresses homelessness, right?
But what are the chances that it’ll assist this person that I’m trying to help?

Local Change fights homelessness by letting you make a small donation every time you see someone in need - we combine your contributions with the specific location where you make them and partner with high-impact organizations to deploy resources to that area.
