Homeless Heroes is a student-led non-profit organization focused on eliminating homelessness. We do this through food deliveries from local schools to homeless shelters, as well as by sharing video interviews with the public. We are always welcoming new members to help us out through a variety of ways, ranging from delivering food to social media marketing.
​
Our commitments are integrity, sustainability, inclusion, education, and social justice.
