For over 15 years, The Doe Fund has worked to develop innovative programs to empower formerly homeless and low-income individuals. Our award winning Ready, Willing & Able program was created in 1990, based on the premise that work works - inspired by the notion that helping the homeless is more than just a handout. Our program participants are paid an hourly wage for providing their valuable street cleaning services. With more than 3,000 graduates since the program's inception, we know that a real opportunity is more effective than temporary assistance such as a hot meal or a bed to sleep in for a night. Since Ready, Willing & Able's inception, The Doe Fund's programs have greatly expanded to include services for individuals with HIV and AIDS, a number of permanent affordable housing projects and a new criminal justice program.
