Illumination Foundation is working hard to collect donations for the homeless individuals and families in our programs this year. Did you know shoes are one of the MOST needed and least donated items? We are seeking donations of new and gently used shoes for men and women, and new and gently used clothing for men and women (preferably larger sizes).
Consider hosting a donation drive and sharing this information with your family, friends, co-workers, club members, and more!
Please let us know if you are able to host a drive and plan to collect donations. We kindly ask you to provide a goal number of donations you would like to collect so we can better plan and organize these donation efforts . If you have questions or would like more information, please contact Sydney Quinn at squinn@ifhomeless.org
All donation drop-offs must be coordinated in advance through the volunteer department.
Thank you!

Mission Statement
The Illumination Foundation (IF) is a non-profit 501 (c) (3), non-denominational, grassroots organization that addresses the crisis of homelessness in Southern California through integrated services that provide appropriate solutions.
Description
Experts on homelessness within Southern California agree that it has reached crisis proportions, and there are not enough resources designated for chronic and emergency programs. With that understanding, IF was founded in late 2007 to effectively lower the barriers for Orange County's homeless population to access existing resources and services. In July 2008 IF launched the "Pre-Transitional Housing and Wrap-Around Program", a comprehensive program that houses and supports homeless families with children in motels in Orange County. IF was established within the UC Irvine Health Care Executive MBA Program as a non-profit public charity organization. Today, IF's governing board consists of community leaders in medicine, nursing, social work, information technology, and education. Illuminate lives by bridging the gaps in existing services for the most underserved to disrupt or prevent the cycle of homelessness in Southern California.
We offer a low-entry threshold to provide a safety net for all homeless families with children.
We connect homeless or at-risk families and individuals with services they are eligible to receive.
We foster rehabilitation by empowering adults to become self-sufficient; and inspiring children to grow into independent, productive adults.
