Hometown Missions

Since 2010, Hometown Missions has assisted dozens of families in the DSISD with housing. You don't have to travel far to join a mission of helping those in need. Read about some of Hometown Missions' projects. And for how Hometown Missions got its start, read about Rocio, the widow with five children that launched this local nonprofit.

Thank you to some very special donors who contributed their expertise and financial resources to Liza’ project.

Fall 2018 Project

liza nevarez and the Creek Road Project

When you have respiratory issues, the last thing you need is to live in a home that’s damp with mold. If you do and you’re 12 years old, you end up missing a lot of school.

Our current project focuses on a family with three children living in a home that’s frankly causing health problems for everyone in the house. In early November, we’ll demolish this three-generation family residence and move a mobile home on to their property. We know this will make a huge difference in the health of everyone. And for an 12-year old boy, it will make a difference in his quality of education. We need your help financially to bulldoze the current home, prepare the site for a mobile home, install a septic system, and furnish the interior. We also need boots-on-the-ground to help achieve these goals.

We finished this project right around thanksgiving. Take a look at what many of you helped create. During the dedication, Liza tearfully told the gathering that this was the first time in her 12-year-old’s life that he feels like he can have a friend sleep over. YOU helped make this happen and we thank you.
