How does one measure success?

For some, success is measured by how much a person has -- homes, bank accounts, possessions. For others, it's measured by our connections -- family, friends, colleagues. And some of us measure success by what kind of impact we leave on the world -- our legacy.

For 43,000+ individuals a year, success begins with a decision: the decision to leave the street and change one's own life forever by entering the ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½. We believe taking this brave first step has the greatest impact on ending homelessness.

Every day at the ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½, we see success in the many faces of those we assist. And we feel success in their countless stories. The ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ would like to share some of our favorite success stories with you. If you feel moved by these stories, please consider investing in a life by visiting .
