Help Keep HOME Line Running!

By Sam Glover

To raise money for its operating costs, HOME Line is keeping a treadmill turning for at least two days and two nights. You can watch all the Treadmill-A-Thon action on HOME Line’s live feed:

I will be keeping the treadmill turning from 3-4 CDT today. Or trying, anyway. If you want me to go faster, help me get closer to my goal of $3,000!

Here is why I am proud to be a part of HOME Line’s board of directors, why I donated, and why you should, too:

This year, HOME Line led the effort to pass the Tenants’ Bill of Rights, the most important tenants’ rights legislation in years. It also fielded thousands of calls, prevented dozens of evictions, and helped tenants get hundreds of thousands of dollars in security deposits and rent abatement–all for FREE!

But it takes money to keep the phones live, the volunteers fed, and the staff paid.

Every non-profit is feeling the effects of the economy, but only a few have such a direct and meaningful effect on Minnesota. HOME Line needs your help.

I am proud to be a part of HOME Line’s board of directors, and I want to see it succeed for many many more years. Please help us out by donating.
