Hey El Paso!

My name is Alejandro Vasquez, CoC Compliance Director for the El Paso Coalition for the Homeless and I’m proud to support the El Paso Coalition for the Homeless this Giving Day. I’m inviting you to join me in backing a program that’s not just impactful—it’s transformational.

✨ It’s called Diversion. And it’s all about stepping in before someone ends up on the streets. Think of a dad who just landed a job but can’t afford work boots. A young woman who needs a bus ticket to get to safety. A family facing eviction over a missed rent payment. These are real stories from our community—and Diversion is how we help.

Unlike traditional grants, Diversion is flexible. It allows us to meet people where they are, offering support for rent, deposits, utilities, transportation, and other essentials that can make the difference between crisis and stability.

💪 We’ve seen it work. Families stay housed. Individuals regain hope. And sometimes, they come back just to say, “You helped me when no one else could.”

This Giving Day, I’m asking you to be part of that impact. During the Milk & Cookies Power Hour (October 7, 2025, from 9–10 PM), we’re competing to get the most $10 donations—and if we win, our agency receives an extra $1,000 to help even more people.

🌍 There’s also a fun twist: if we get a donation from someone in the furthest country from El Paso, we’ll earn an additional $500!

So let’s do this. Click that orange Donate button next to our organization. Your $10 could be the turning point in someone’s life.

Together, we’re not just giving—we’re preventing homelessness, restoring dignity, and building a stronger El Paso.

Let’s make this Giving Day one to remember. 💙
