Found House Interfaith Housing Network (IHN) at Wise Temple

Since 1991, Wise Temple has partnered with Found House Interfaith Housing Network (IHN), supporting Cincinnati families facing housing insecurity. For a week at a time, Wise Temple classrooms are transformed into cozy bedrooms, and the Program Room into a welcoming living room space, with volunteers welcoming, feeding, and creating community with Found House IHN guests who sleep at Wise Center. Without congregations like Wise Temple, it would be difficult for some families to stay together as they look for permanent housing and financial stability.

We invite YOU to join in this important and meaningful mitzvah as we host families July 9-16. Wise Temple volunteers work together to provide food, fun, and a warm, comfortable, home-like environment for families during their stay in our building. This is a perfect opportunity for families and friends to spend meaningful time together helping others in our community.

Learn more about our partnership through descriptions of volunteer roles and videos about the importance of this program. WE NEED YOU, our Wise Temple community, and we invite you to sign up and join us as a volunteer through one or more of the many roles available.

Unavailable to volunteer on the dates we will host families? Consider supporting the program by donating to our Amazon Wish List as we collect needed supplies. And don’t forget to change the shipping address on Amazon to the “Wise Temple IHN” option for your donation to be sent directly to the temple.
