Frequently Asked Questions
“HomeMore” stems from our belief that solving the homeless crisis is more than just providing housing. We believe that each individual has unique reasons for why they are homeless. We plan to assist this crisis by Investing in Every Root Cause for Every Individual. By understanding each individual personally, we can learn about correcting the behaviors that ultimately led them to experience homelessness.
Our E.A.S.Y. Plan describes the four main segments of our organization: Educate, Aid, Solve and Get You Involved. The Education portion focuses on educating the public about the ins and outs of the homeless industry through graphics and videos that our videographer team creates. The Aid portion focuses on facilitating societal marketing campaigns for companies in S.F. who have a shared interest in helping the homeless community. The Solve part of our is centered around how we believe we can solve homelessness by building our HomeMore Campus in a neighboring city outside of San Francisco. Lastly, the You portion focuses on providing donors with a way to be involved with helping individuals who are homeless while also providing donors with a way to track who their donation is impacting directly.

Our LearnMore Blog is a blog that releases articles about the various news related to the housing industry pertaining to homelessness. We have between six and ten writers as a part of our team at all times who are passionate writers attending university.

Our HomeMore Campus will have a wide variety of personnel to assist these homeless individuals in every facet of their lives. Assistance will range across the following areas: nutrition, mental health, physical health, education, career search, transition back to society, etc. If you are interested in reading through the complete plan for our HomeMore Campus, please visit our Solve page.
Our teams are working extremely hard to fully complete our cost projections for what it would take to fund the entire 27 Step Journey implementation fully. Additionally, we have another team dedicated to the policies, logistics, and written plans. We will be releasing these items in a more consumable version by Fall 2022.
As of right now, our target date to begin construction for the HomeMore Campus is January 2025.
We will first perform a proof of concept with three to seven individuals in 2023. Once perfected, it can be scaled to house and help an estimated 100-200 individuals per year.
The HomeMore Campus would be converted into a University or intermediary care center after homelessness in San Francisco is significantly decreased.
The primary funding source will be a combination of government assistance with the likelihood of working with large corporations.
Our You program is focused on getting You involved. We recognize that there is not a lot of transparency amongst nonprofits and their donors in terms of capital allocation. At HomeMore, we want you to directly track where your donation is going so that you can see the impact you made!
