Miracle Messages is an award-winning nonprofit organization that helps people experiencing homelessness rebuild their social and financial support systems, primarily through family reunifications, a phone-based buddy system, and direct cash transfers.

Reunion services: A person experiencing homelessness records a message to a loved one (or vice versa). Then, our global network of "digital detectives" attempts to locate the loved one and deliver the message. To date, we've reunited 1000+ families, with an average time separated of 15 years. 

Buddy system: Miracle Friends matches unhoused neighbors with committed volunteers for weekly phone calls and texts. To date, 700+ friends have been matched from across the United States. Volunteers are welcome to apply from anywhere in the world.

Miracle Messages offers a humane, highly effective way to help end homelessness: strengthen social supports, shatter stigmas, and empower people everywhere to get involved. Our work has been featured in the New York Times, Washington Post, SF Chronicle, CNN, in an essay by President Bush, in a TED talk, and hundreds more. We're on a mission to end relational poverty on the streets – join us.
