Ready for Life Host Homes

623 pairs of socks. 💙

That’s 623 moments of warmth, comfort, and care for youth in our community.

Grayson, a local 5th grader, saw a need and took action—launching his service project “Scouting for Socks” to collect socks for youth experiencing homelessness. Through his leadership and compassion, he not only made a real impact, but also earned his Citizenship badge.

We are so grateful for his heart and initiative!

A special thank you as well to Signarama Redding for donating signage for his collection box, and Pizza Factory Shasta Lake for hosting a donation site and supporting this effort.

This is what community looks like. 👏

🎉 Happy Birthday to two incredible members of our Host Homes team! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating two people who bring so much heart to the work we do. Your passion, kindness, and selflessness shine through every day- and our team (and community) is better because of you. Thank you for the care, dedication, and positive energy you bring to everyone you come in contact with. We’re so grateful for you both and hope your day is filled with celebration and joy! 💙✨

There are so many ways to give- and today, on Giving Tuesday, we want to highlight one of our community partners who gives generously all year long.

A huge thank-you to the Shasta County Lions Cyber Club for another amazing donation of food boxes for the youth in our Host Homes program. Your continued support helps ensure that young people experiencing homelessness have access to nourishment, stability, and care.

Whether you give by donating items, sharing your time, offering housing, or supporting financially, every act of kindness moves our mission forward. Thank you for showing up for our youth and for believing in what’s possible when a community comes together.

💛 Happy Giving Tuesday!
