Review for Housing Forward, Maywood, IL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have served both as a board member and committee volunteer for Housing Forward for over 12 years. What impresses me most about this organization is its dedication to truly end homelessness. They go way beyond just providing a cot for the night. Housing Forward provides counseling, job training and most important a home for the homeless. Another very impressive attribute is the organization's ability to adapt to the every changing fundraising climate. This is largely due to its great and tireless leader Lynda Schueler, and dedicated staff and board.

Review for Housing Forward, Maywood, IL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I am very proud and honored to serve on the board of West Suburban PADS. During my tenure, I have come to really appreciate the comprehensive services WSPADS offers its clients. Not only do they provide needed shelter, but they also provide the services to help the homeless obtain gainful employment and permanent housing. As the say goes, they just don’t provide a fish of food, they teach their clients how to fish to have food for a lifetime.
