Aurora is a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving the homeless and near homeless in the Greater Evansville, IN area. Each year, it serves over 500 individuals: men, women, children, those with disabilities, and the re-entry population. 

The Homeless Experience Project is Aurora’s new fundraiser and awareness event and its purpose is to bring a greater understanding of the struggles the families and individuals face when homeless in our community. If you'd like to support Aurora, please donate to my fundraising page!

In my appointed role as Deputy Mayor and as a resident of Evansville, I believe it’s essential to gain a deeper understanding of the barriers our community members face, especially those experiencing homelessness. Participating in Aurora’s Homeless Experience Project offers me a small window into the daily struggles that so many endure in our city. While this experience can’t capture the full reality, I hope it helps foster empathy and sparks meaningful dialogue within our community. My hope is that, together, we can create a more supportive and compassionate Evansville for everyone.
