It’s that giving time of year. Our annual P11 Blanket+ Drive to help the local homeless stay warmer has begun. We’ve been doing this drive for many years, and it’s always humbling and heartfelt for us by the tremendous outpouring of support and response from the homebuilding, multifamily, and marketing industries. Thank you so much. There are currently no walk-up homeless shelters in the OC. This blanket+ drive literally helps people stay alive.

THERE ARE TWO FAST & EASY WAYS TO DONATE

1. Buy new items from our public Amazon Wish List called “Kelly’s Corner Homeless Outreach”
and they will be directly sent to Leigh White, P11 Senior Content Strategist/Advocate for the Homeless. She’s been doing volunteer direct street outreach in Orange County for almost 11 years at night and on weekends. She connects folks needing services and housing by collaborating with local case management agencies, first responders, law enforcement, and local city and county government. She also follows up with these agencies/entities to ensure progress and transparency. The blankets, socks, and other items you purchase open a door through direct interaction and kindness right now. They help to start a conversation, gain trust, keep people alive, and change homeless lives for the better during these colder nights. Simple gestures can lead to big results.

2. Donate to Leigh’s Venmo, and she will buy the new items and distribute them on your behalf.
