Let's House Durham
A new initiative by Urban Ministries of Durham aims to end homelessness, brick by brick, through a new and unique fund raising campaign called "Let's House Durham."
The campaign is looking for every person in Durham to donate just $15.76. If everyone donated that amount UMD can house all those affected by homelessness in the city for an entire year.
