Life can be cruelly unpredictable. Right now, families in our community are facing the heart-breaking reality of homelessness. DAH is here to provide emergency rental assistance, but we cannot do it without you.
Dar al-Hijrah is committed to preventing homelessness by offering emergency rental assistance to families facing unexpected hardships. Your contribution can provide immediate relief and hope to those on the brink.
The unexpected is closer than you think, but together we can uphold the strength and compassion of our community by ensuring no family faces this crisis alone.
