Success Stories
Inspiring Journeys and Featured Achievements.
We're proud to shine a spotlight on the empowered transformation of Do Good's participants.
70% of houseless Veterans in Multnomah County shelters are currently in a Do Good program. And our teams provide safe, supportive places to sleep for more than 500 individuals every night.
It is thanks to our informed, compassionate methods that many participants are able to overcome their barriers and find permanent housing, and we love to celebrate every single win.
