Throwing Aces Homeless Advocacy

HELP OTHERS BY GIVING

In a time that feels unsure for so many, Throwing Aces has joined in the fight to make homeless rare, brief, and non-recurring. But we cannot do that alone. With our knowledgeable staff, strong community partnerships, and your generosity, we can be agents of change to see a brighter future for those who have been marginalized in our community.

OUR MOTTO:

ANYONE & EVERYONE.

No one can do life completely on their own. We are made to live in community. At Throwing Aces, we invite anyone & everyone to sit with us and share our table. We don’t have all the answers, but we work closely with our clients and community partners to bring about positive sustainable change.

WE ARE HERE TO HELP!

Through weekly outreaches and short-term intensive work, we are able to connect with those in our community who are marginalized and at risk. We do this in order to assist them in getting connected to the resources Waco has to offer. With practical planning, client-driven goals, and a clear vision, Throwing Aces is able to make a substantial impact in an abbreviated period of time.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

MAKE A DONATION

Your generosity makes our work possible! When you contribute financially you are advocating for the good of those who are experiencing homelessness in our community. Being good stewards of your gift is something we take seriously.

GIFTS NEEDED

Many people who are experiencing homelessness lack basic personal care items needed for everyday life. Consider donating items for our outreach efforts. Visit our Amazon list and purchase items that will be shipped directly to our office.

JOIN OUR EFFORTS

Have some available time? We’d love to have you! We have several opportunities where you can help. Whether that is a couple of hours a month, or more availability each week, your time is essential in helping to make homelessness less frequent in our community.

Winter Warmth Mission!

As we are about to enter the cold season in Texas, we are inviting our partners to join us in our Winter Warmth Mission. This initiative helps provide blankets, sleeping bags, hand warmers, and other warm-weather items for our clients. Our goal is to be able to provide warm-weather supplies to any client who calls and has a need. Whether our clients are couch-surfing, camping, or sleeping in their cars, our desire is to help them combat the elements this winter.
