Remember the last time you mislaid your phone?  How did it feel?  Did you miss important calls from family, work, or friends who had no way to reach you? What a relief to find it again! 

That sense of relief is what Community Voice Mail is all about.

Community Voice Mail provides a phone number to people who lack a reliable way to be contacted.  Here's what people say about what that means:

The Coalition for the Homeless of Houston/Harris County is the lead Community Voice Mail agency in Houston.  In partnership with 147 social service agencies throughout Harris County, Community Voice Mail Houston is helping 4,017 people to reach their goals and helping our entire region connect people in crisis to opportunity and resources that they would otherwise miss.

We know it works!  Like any voice mail account, it can be checked from any phone.  Clients receive their local phone number, set up their greeting, and begin giving it to employers, landlords, and family.  Even for people with cell phones, a Community Voice Mail number is there even when minutes run out.  Community Voice Mail is entirely free to the user.  Each year, when we measure results, consistently 76% of Community Voice Mail users reach one or more of their goals within 6-8 months.

The ongoing success and expansion of Community Voice Mail hinges on caring people who will step up to ensure it is available in our community.  Would you like to help us?

It costs just $36 a year to support one voice mail user.  Consider supporting one person, or more by making a quarterly or monthly recurring $36 gift.  Click Here for donation options. 

On behalf of the Community Voice Mail users throughout the Houston/Harris County area, thank you for helping extend a communications lifeline to hundreds/thousands of our neighbors.
