Homefound is a fiscally sponsored charitable project that turns local giving into a shared, auditable care-plan pool for Southern California.
Too often, donors face a bad choice: sidewalk cash with no accountability, opaque charity black boxes, or personal crowdfunding that puts fundraising labor on people already in crisis. Homefound is built for a third path.
How it works
You fund the SoCal Community Pool: one shared pool, not rival personal campaigns.
Screened community organizers allocate dollars to tangible needs (Phase 2 goal: verified professional caseworkers).
You can see where it went: category, amount, allocator role, neighbor first name only.
Promise: You fund the pool → vetted people spend on real needs → you can see where it went.
What your gift buys: emergency shelter, housing deposits, groceries/meals, health & wellness, pet care, transit, clothing & essentials, recovery support, and a Community Emergency Fund reserve — goods and services only, no street-cash handoffs.
Your support also sustains the lean transparency tools (app + public feed + money trail) that keep the pool honest.
Year 1 intent: most cash to direct aid.
