Family Promise (RAIHN)
FamilyPromise, formally known as Rochester Area Interfaith Hospitality Network or RAIHN works with churches in Rochester who host homeless families one week every quarter or support the congregations that do host. However, during the COVID pandemic, RAIHN has had to change the way they operate. While volunteer opportunities are limited, we need our community now more than ever. Check here to learn about the changes Family Promise has made and how you can help this organization meet the needs of some of the most vulnerable families in our community.
