Bridge the Gap
Because of federal funding cuts, we’re facing a $325,000 shortfall in 2026. Without new support, we’ll have to reduce the programs that make The Delores Project a unique, affirming, and life saving space for women, transgender, and nonbinary individuals experiencing homelessness. We’re calling on our community to help us raise $250,000 by the end of 2025 to ensure we can continue to meet this moment with strength and compassion.
