PROGRAMS

Often, when individuals and families become housed, they have nothing more than clothes on their backs. Through a partnership with several community organizations and generous individual donations,  DGT is honored to furnish apartments for community members escaping homelessness. 

In  2022, DGT  helped furnish 82 individual homes. Only 2 of those have lost their apartments and gone back on the streets. We are continuing this program in 2023. You can help by joining our "trucks and muscles" volunteer team to help transport donated furnishings to apartments!

Through Empower Us program, homeless individuals gain valuable work experience and income to furnish the homes from our Welcome Home program. This fosters stability, self-sufficiency, and community integration, which addresses homelessness's root causes. Through these programs DGT creates comfortable living spaces while reducing waste through repurposing. Your support ensures our continued impact in supporting those in need and maximizing community welfare by providing Empower Us participants with a modest stipend to assist in moving furnishings into the homes of those transitioning out of homelessness and poverty. DGT aims to empower participants to achieve stability, self-sufficiency, and a sense of belonging in their communities.

DGT can be found each week just south of the municipal gardens on Grant ave passing out clothing, bedding, and other necessities to our unsheltered neighbors. For more information contact Gary Attebery (801) 458-2752

Economic stability is a significant challenge for the unsheltered. DGT partners with Cindy Cisney at Affordable Quality Tax Prep by Cindy, LLC to help unsheltered community members file for missed COVID stimulus payments. Since the beginning of this effort, over $100,000 has been returned to community members in need. Cindy volunteers her services without compensation. It is still not too late to get stimulus checks!
