PROJECT HOMELESS CONNECT

MatSu United Way Homeless Connect 1200×500

When: 2025 Date TBA
Location: Menard Sports Complex, 1001 S. Mack Dr. Wasilla, Alaska

Thank you to all the vendors, volunteers and agencies who came together this year to make PHC a success! With the extremely cold weather we’ve been having, a hot meal, personal and public services, clothing and cold weather gear, and haircuts mean everything to the guests we serve. Special thanks to the sisters of Beta Sigma Phi, Alaska Job Corps, Frontline Mission, turn-a-leaf thrift store, Families in Transition, Mat-Su Public Health and the Palmer Stakes of the LDS Church.

In partnership with the Mat-Su Coalition on Housing and Homelessness, and many participating local agencies, United Way of Mat-Su is honored to provide exceptional, compassionate assistance to Valley residents experiencing housing instability every year. This event is a one-day, one-stop resource for those experiencing homelessness or housing instability, where guests may access essential services (including personal hygiene and comfort items, housing help, public health, and gently-used clothing), local resources, and receive a hot meal while engaging in fellowship with their community.

Project Homeless Connect is in need of community volunteers to help make the day a success. To volunteer, go to the UWMS Volunteers page and complete the short registration form.

Project Homeless Connect assists guests with access to basic needs, resources and fellowship.
