How National Muffin Day Works
- Bake muffins to acknowledge people experiencing homelessness (in previous years, we gave them out, but this year please do what you’re comfortable with).
- Post publicly on social media with #givemuffins.
- Consider donating to an important homelessness cause near you. Call ahead to ensure they accept food donations. Let us know.
For every Muffinteer who posts on social media, we donate to the nonprofits Project Homeless Connect and Family Promise. In past years, others have matched this donation! This year, will it be you?
*since we’re lawyers, donations subject to a cap if this really goes viral.
Give A Dozen
We suggest giving in increments of $12 (in honor of the muffin tin), if you are able to do so. Here’s a look at your potential impact:
- $12 provides a few pairs of socks to people experiencing homelessness. Socks are a much needed clothing item to keep people warm
- $24 provides a healthy meal, hygiene materials, and basic needs for participants visiting Project Homeless Connect’s Every Day Connect drop in programs
- $48 covers five DMV IDs for participants
- $72 offers a series of job counseling sessions
- $96 gives two pairs of prescription glasses
- $125 provides a sleeping bag coat from Empowerment Plan
