Money pledged to 4PA goes into two main areas: expenses associated with our cleanup efforts and the operation and development of the Touchstone Campus. It’s very important to us that you see a tangible difference in the community in exchange for your support. We wouldn’t expect you to give if you couldn’t see what your resources were going to!

NO. Community donations go toward cleaning public spaces only. Anytime you see us doing a job on private property, the owner has contracted us directly. This is called “fee for service” and many non-profits do this type of work as a source of income.

YES. Although 4PA has no direct contracts with other agencies, we’ve spent years fostering good working relationships with others. We share information with and support law enforcement, the City of Port Angeles, Clallam County, medical teams, and a number of social services. We believe the issue of homelessness has many different elements that take a variety of organizations working together to solve.

1) Consider a monthly or one-time pledge. The more resources we have the more people we can help!

2) Sign up to volunteer during one of our weekly opportunities.

3) Spread the word by sharing our mission with family and friends!

No we don’t. We take careful measures to ensure each site we clean has been declared abandoned. This is done by direct communication with the previous occupants, our outreach partners, or city staff members.
