EMPOWERING STUDENTS TO BRING VALENTINE’S DAY TO THE HOMELESS

Homeless at Heart empowers student leaders to create Valentine’s bags filled with everyday essentials, encouragement, and love. These bags are more than supplies—they’re symbols of compassion, reminding those experiencing homelessness that they are seen, valued, and cared for.

INSPIRE STUDENTS. CHANGE LIVES.

  • Student Ambassadors take ownership of a project from start to finish—planning drives, organizing supplies, and coordinating community service efforts. They discover how to bring people together and make things happen as a team.

  • Building each Valentine’s bag helps students see beyond themselves. They learn to think about what others might need, recognize the challenges people face, and understand that even small gestures can have a real impact.

  • Every Valentine’s bag creates a moment of connection. Through simple acts of service, students see how their efforts can make a real difference in someone’s day—and how consistent compassion can lead to lasting change in their community.

As a parent or teacher, you want to give your child or student a sense of purpose and leadership. Homeless at Heart provides a simple, powerful way to do just that. Homeless at Heart equips student leaders to take action in their communities by organizing a Valentine’s Day campaign at their school. Through this effort, students learn what it means to lead with heart. Each bag, complete with handwritten notes of encouragement, reflects our mission to connect young leaders with meaningful service that fosters dignity and hope.
