GumGum Gives Back: Q2 Quarterly Cause - Supporting Homelessness

For the first time ever the EMEA VOICE Coalition is excited to lead our GumGum Gives Back: Quarterly Cause initiative. This quarter, we have selected Homelessness as our area of focus. Specifically, charities and organizations with a focus on aiding and supporting those who are suffering from homelessness and all the associated suffering which comes with it.

The VOICE coalition, along with other passionate GumGummers, have identified the following organizations that support homelessness here. If you know of any other charities that are passionate about homelessness, please reach out to the voice@gumgum.com and they will be sure to add it in. 

How to Participate:

Between May 08th - June 9th

Option 1) Donate €15 EURO/USD ( your local currency) or more to one of the listed organizations or an organization that supports homelessness.

Option 2) People's Choice -Donate to an organization that supports homelessness, which is not included in our suggested list. 

Option 3) Take direct action and utilize GumGum’s Volunteer Time Off! Some ideas include:
