A Community Response for Homeless Families

Family Promise® of Greater Lafayette Inc. (FPGL)

START-UP DATE: January 2009

... is a non-profit 501(c)(3) and non-denominational organization for families in transition. Part of a national network, FPGL is one of over 136 Networks across the United States. There are over 4500 congregations and 110,000 volunteers making up these Networks. Based on the support of volunteers and host congregations, Family Promise® (formerly Interfaith Hospitality Network (IHN)) programs are funded by donations, grants, and fundraising opportunities.

Family Promise builds programs from existing resources so they can be implemented quickly, and without major start-up costs.

All the Family Promise Networks are successful. On average, 80%+ of the families who participate in Interfaith Hospitality Programs find permanent housing. Guests without jobs usually find them or enter job training. Others even enroll in school. FPGL has begun to touch many volunteers within out Network as they prepare to care for families in need in a loving and caring way.

...thanks to "Jean Tyner and Sherri Guido for braving the rain and helping me today (May 6, 2009) at our free non-profit spot at the WL Farmer's Market, and to Deborah Simmons for coming to help and sell her cute flower pens.  I also want to thank my friends Char Warner and Linda Anderson for helping us get all set up and ready to sell cards. ... We will be back at the market on July 15 and again on September 2."  ~Vera~


THANK YOU ...
to all those involved in one way or the other with
the 'Fall Fun & Food' chili supper
held at Cary Camp on Sunday, October 26, 2008.
It was a successful event and beginning!
