With costs continuing to rise in 2022, our neighbors are facing challenges in meeting their household’s basic needs. Inflation is making it harder for people in our community to afford housing, gas, utilities, food, and more. 

Through the generosity of donors like you, Our Neighbors’ Place is able to connect people in Pierce and St. Croix counties with the support they need to find and maintain stable housing, secure adequate clothing for the winter ahead, and put food on the table for their families.

Your contribution to Our Neighbors’ Place will help us meet these needs during this difficult time.

Your donation to the Neighbors Helping Neighbors fund directly supports the following programs in Pierce and St. Croix Counties:

Transitional Housing: 

Stable housing and case management for families experiencing homelessness.

Day Center: 

 Functions as a one-stop shop for anyone needing help with housing, shelter, food, clothing, resources, and referrals. In 2022, the Day Center had over 3,500 points of contact (phone calls and in person visits) from guests seeking help.

Clothing Closet: 

Provides free clothing vouchers for anyone needing help with clothes, shoes, accessories, or outerwear. Over 850 vouchers were distributed in 2022.

Backpack Program: 

Distributes backpacks full of food to children (K-12) whose families are experiencing food insecurity in the River Falls School District. During the 2021-22 school year and 2022 summer, we provided 18,200 pounds of food and more than 3,000 vouchers for perishable food.
