Give up something to help someone or a family get home . . . for good!
Here is a feel-good fall activity for you and your friends. It's easy, just give something up and donate that amount to help those struggling with homelessness or housing insecurity. Could be a latte, a boba, a dinner out or maybe a round of golf. If you give up something (or just give) to lift up those that need a helping hand, we all benefit.

How it works

Pledge to give something up and donate the value
or to do more good . . .

The Great Give Up is a campaign created by Homeless Intervention Services of Orange County (HIS-OC). HIS-OC helps folks who are struggling with homelessness or housing insecurity.

Homeless Intervention Services of Orange County currently runs four programs to help people in need in our community. The Transitional Housing Program is primarily for families experiencing homelessness and, in most cases, in need of reunification. The second program provides housing and education for young men ages 18-24. It’s called CHESS (Combining Housing Education and Skills for Students). In our third program, HomeShare OC, we match homeless college students struggling to stay in school with senior homeowners. The pair shares housing in a mutually beneficial living arrangement. The fourth program is an outreach and referral program called Housing Connection. We collaborate with a network of community-based organizations to help the homeless, housing insecure and abused find services that meet their specific needs. For more information on our organization and our programs visit our site www.his-oc.org.
