Click Here to Volunteer for Tent City 2022

MISSION: To use Community Collaboration Leverage to deliver the entire community’s compassion to those on the streets and in the shelters.
Started in 1990, our annual Tent City brings the entire community together to provide solutions, 1 at a time. This has evolved into a weekend-long festival of compassion where volunteers provide medical, dental, food, clothing, employment, the return to housing, critical documents, haircuts, and other services to those in need. Whether volunteer or guest, each person truly connects with another, with new opportunities and perspectives, to create mutual accomplishment. That’s a 1Matter’s Tent City.
