Summary
Second Light, a homeless shelter, just landed a million-dollar grant from United Way—but they must match it. If they succeed, they’ll get two million over three years to hire staff, boost resources, and help people transition to stable housing. United Way’s president calls it their largest ever grant, praising Second Light’s leadership and highlighting a growing crisis: homelessness among working families fueled by affordability issues. He argues preventing evictions is the better long-term solution. Now, Second Light has a big challenge—and a big opportunity—to raise their share and transform how they serve the community.
