Family Promise of Greater Rochester - formerly RAIHN

TONIGHT! Come join us to learn more about homelessness in our community and how we can work towards solutions.

All are welcome. No RSVP required.

Family Promise of Greater Rochester is SO grateful to our wonderful donors and volunteers who drop off supplies (like diapers) when we are running low! Thank you, Erin !

Thank you to the for providing generous funding to support the Shelter Program. We continue to be so grateful to the Rochester community for joining us in our work toward creating a community where affordable, decent, equitable housing is seen as a human right and every family has a place to call home.

Thank you to all who came out to see us at Rochester’s 2025 Juneteenth Festival! We had a great time celebrating with temporary tattoos, raffles, prizes, and more! Your support means everything to our community.

Come and join us at Rochester’s 2025 Juneteenth Festival where we will be hosting a table from 12:00-4:30 p.m. Every hour, along with sharing free resoources and information, we will be raffling off a Housing is NOT a Luxury designer tote bag (which will also be sold at a discounted Juneteenth price) along with a filled kids backpack! There will also be a prize wheel with candy, temporary tattoos, stickers, and more! 

This is a special opportunity to connect with the community so show up, show out, and look for our table at Martin Luther King Jr. Park at 353 Court Street. Hope to see you there!

Our commitment to FPGROC staff is just as strong as our commitment to the families we walk alongside.

Staff wellness provides the endurance needed to navigate the housing climate in our nation and in our Rochester community.

With that in mind, we share that Second Saturday will be discontinued at this time.

We are so grateful to everyone who has shown up to lend a helping hand!

is finally here!

Join us in expanding our Transitional Housing Program so that we can prepare FIVE MORE safe and affordable apartments just like this.

Families in our Transitional program stay housed while preparing for their future.

FORTY PERCENT of the below market rate rent is placed in escrow over 2 years for families when they move.

Support our Transitional Housing Program with a donation of any amount, now through April 29th https://www.fpgives.org/organizations/fpgroc?blm_aid=0

Our Transitional Housing Program is critical to combating the growing housing crisis in our community, where just 3.5 affordable rental units are available for every TEN households living at or below extremely low income.

Our transitional apartments include those on the second floor of our building at 142 Webster and two additional buildings FPGROC purchased from , kicking off a meaningful partnership.

Together these properties will be transformed to ELEVEN welcoming, safe and dignified apartments—six of which have families already settled in.

Our Transitional Housing Program is unique in that rent is set below market rates, will be sustained as “affordable” in perpetuity, and FORTY PERCENT of the monthly rent is placed in escrow over 2 years for families when they move!

Your gift on Giving Day, April 22nd, will support the Transitional Housing Program—from cosmetic and structural updates to the apartments to ongoing management and support.

Stay tuned for a link to donate on Tuesday!
