FACES without PLACES Facts:
FACES without PLACES was founded in 1998 to support Project
Connect, an education program at Cincinnati Public Schools
in Ohio. Five thousand dollars was raised to provide a bus
to bring children experiencing homelessness to a summer
program. Originally called the Project Connect Homeless
Children’s Fund, FwP helps Project Connect by providing
valuable funding and awareness to support children experiencing
homelessness. FwP has provided funding for enrichment, summer
programming, transportation, uniforms, supplies, enrollment
assistance, and field trips.
To help these children, Project Connect:
• clears obstacles to enrollment and attendance
• arranges transportation
• distributes school supplies and back packs
• supplies uniforms and clothing
• arranges immediate access to the free lunch program
• makes referrals to other educational resources
• offers an eight week summer academic and enrichment
program
• provides tutoring and enrichment opportunities in
after school programs
• encourages parents to increase their involvement
in their child’s education
• advocates and increases awareness of educational
rights
