💙 SIAB Large Grant Recipient: Harford Family House
Last week, the Society of Italian American Businessmen proudly presented a $25,000 Large Grant to Harford Family House, an incredible organization dedicated to ending homelessness in our community.
Since 1989, Harford Family House has provided housing, support, and resources to families with children in Harford County experiencing homelessness. Through their dedication—and now, their expanded reach following a merger with FCCAU—they’re able to serve anyone in need of housing and hope, whether families or individuals.
We’re honored to support their mission and help strengthen the fight against homelessness. ❤️
