Individual needs when BACS was founded in 1953 – like help with housing or mental health care – have become community crises today. Healthcare and housing are systemically hard to access, and we see the results on our streets every day.

BACS stays on the front lines – responding to new needs as they emerge – piloting innovating solutions to change – and combining 70 years of wisdom with the most modern data tools to make your donation go as far as possible and do the most good.

By donating to BACS, you invest in local solutions to local challenges.

See success stories from this year – and help make them possible for the thousands of people BACS will help in 2023.

Since 1953, more than 100,000 people have come to BACS in their toughest moments – about to lose their housing or after decades of homelessness, experiencing their first mental health crisis or after years of isolation – and gotten the help they need to reach stability.

In 2023, BACS celebrates 70 years of doing “whatever it takes.” Thanks to your partnership, the BACS team can rebuild lives while making the whole community safer. Please, donate today!
