Make a pledge

Many Oxfordshire-based organisations are very concerned about homelessness in our county. Your organisation is probably one of them – but perhaps you're not sure what to do about it.  

It’s a surprisingly short step from being concerned to taking action, we can help guide your business across the gap.

From this website you can find out how to take action, now. Everyone can help out, because the skills we’re looking for are as diverse as humanity itself. Practical, creative, hands-on, hands-off - whatever your organisation has to offer, it can make someone’s life a little bit better.

Join the Movement and make a pledge...

Here are some suggested actions your organisation can take now:

GIVE TIME

• Give your time, expertise and ideas to our partner charities who need your support. This could be as a volunteer with a partner charity or through sharing your skills. Read more about Employee Volunteering on the OCVA website
• Increase your organisation's awareness of homelessness in Oxfordshire. Please get in touch if you would like OHM to come and talk to your business about homelessness to raise your understanding

GIVE MONEY

• Create a fundraising event yourselves
• Join our CEO Sleepout on Thursday 10th October 2024 and fundraise for that. Please register your interest today, remembering to select Oxfordshire Homeless Movement as your chosen charity please!
