📌 Homes for Hope – Individual Fundraising Guide
How to Raise Funds for Yourself While VWF Builds Your Trust
📌 Introduction – Your Path to Homeownership & Stability
At Homes for Hope, an initiative of the Viviscent Wellness Foundation (VWF), we believe that every veteran and underserved family deserves safe, stable, and affordable housing.
We are excited to offer a unique opportunity where individuals can raise funds for themselves while VWF builds out a secure trust to manage those funds responsibly and ensure they are used for housing and stability-focused needs.
This guide will walk you through how to set up your own fundraising campaign, engage your community, and secure a home through VWF’s trust model.
📌 Step 1: Get Started – Register with Homes for Hope
To set up your personal fundraising campaign, follow these steps:
✔ Complete the Homes for Hope Registration Form – This ensures that your campaign aligns with VWF’s mission and qualifies for a VWF-managed trust.
✔ Provide Basic Information – Name, background, your story, and your housing goal.
✔ Determine Your Fundraising Goal – Set a realistic financial target based on your housing needs (e.g., $50,000 for a 1-bedroom home, $75,000 for a 2-bedroom home, etc.).
📌 To register, email us at Foundation@viviscentwellnessfoundation.org
📌 Step 2: Set Up Your Personalized Fundraising Page
