Story

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running my first marathon this coming spring and hope to include you on my adventure, my journey towards success. I am grateful to have a greater goal than just running 42 kilometers and that's raising money for Options Housing.

Options Housing provides much more than just a home for those experiencing homelessness, but a supportive environment from where their tenants can do more than survive, they can thrive. Beyond Supportive Housing, Options Housing assists adults to find and sustain housing, and give the security to face addiction and mental health challenges. Once housed Options Housing programs strive to prevent evictions thought Resource Centers and the Hoarding Assistance Team (HAT).
