This month’s Humanitarian Award goes to the Rhode Island Coalition for The Homeless (R.I.C.H.).
Their mission statement reads as follows… “The Rhode Island Coalition is organized to promote and preserve the dignity, comprehensive, and cooperative solutions to the problems of housing and homelessness”.
They succeed in their mission by changing lives, and helping others. They help by advocacy, education, and collaboration.
R.I.C.H. was founded in 1988. They have numerous groups that better help constituents with advising others, or help make decisions that affect the homeless. This organization helps people find their voices so that they can communicate better the issues of being homeless, and find solutions to end it. There’s always someone there to help guide you back on the right path.
Street Sights wants to give thanks to the entire staff at R.I.C.H. for all that they do for the community.
Thank You, and Congratulations.
