The Homeless Trust

The Trust Readies for the First "Youth Count" of Homeless Students

For the first time ever, the Homeless Trust will conduct a count of homeless youth in our community. Called the "Youth Count,"  volunteers will seek to identify unaccompanied and unstably housed youth ages 12-24 in Miami-Dade County. Volunteers are needed for the August 29 census.  Email hildafernandez@miamidade.gov for more information.

Romero-Britto designed meters throughout Miami-Dade County

Did you know that Miami-Dade County residents give millions of dollars to panhandlers each year? The fact is that not all who panhandle are homeless. Even if they are homeless, giving them money is not an effective means to help them. That's why we are deploying our Romero-Britto designed meters throughout Miami-Dade County.

They are a safe, reliable and fully accountable means for you to help people who are homeless because 100% of the money collected in these meters is used directly to fund additional shelter beds, and expand the number of indoor meal programs for people experiencing homelessness. When you see one of our homeless donation meters, please consider giving your change to change a life.

Please mail the completed sponsorship form to the Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust at:
