Susan was prepared to sleep on the floor again
She was part of a program that was able to help her get into permanent supportive housing, but she wasn’t able to afford a bed or the delivery costs and no program could pay for these items. She would have ended up on the floor, but her case manager called Wings Homeless Advocacy and within 48 hours Susan had a bed, frame, and bedding delivered to her by the caring volunteers of Wings.

‘’I'm really excited about Wings. The trainings reinforced that Wings is where I want to put my volunteer time and energy. One of the things that stood out for me from the training last night is the respect and compassion Wings has for both the individuals they serve
and for the volunteers.’’
-Sharron, Wings Volunteer
Our volunteer-driven model is the beauty of Wings. We can fill in where other services aren't available. And we can do it in a way that is responsive to what our unhoused neighbors need. This is our piece of the puzzle, how we contribute to the bigger solution of resolving homelessness in Santa Cruz County.
