Our Armando Parrish was only 16 when he founded this nonprofit to raise money to help people currently living on the streets. Besides helping with funding while transitioning to permanent housing, we provide Google certification training and other IT skills training, mentoring, and job placement services for people experiencing homelessness. We partner with homeless recovery centers to identify individuals who are ready for our program. We also work with local food banks to deliver food directly to people living on the streets.
We are honored to be one of three finalist for the Dallas Foundation 2022 Pegasus Prize. We have used the funds to launch our Computer Certification Skills Program at In My Shoes.
