The Million Dollar Round Table Foundation (MDRT) has awarded a $9,000 grant to the Institute of Global Homelessness (IGH), to support the development of an online homelessness research hub set to launch in early 2018. IGH will develop the hub in partnership with the Canadian Observatory on Homelessness, creators of the Canadian Homeless Hub.
Through its global grants programs, the MDRT Foundation is committed to building stronger families and communities around the globe. This year, MDRT Foundation will award over $1 million in MDRT member-endorsed grants to more than 200 charitable organizations worldwide.
Representing the MDRT Foundation, MDRT Trustee John F. Nichols, MSM, CLU, Fund Development Manager Karen Matts, and Executive Director Michele L. Stauff, CFRE, presented the grant to IGH on Thursday, August 3, 2017.
"The Institute of Global Homelessness is deeply grateful," said IGH Director Kat Johnson. "With MDRT's support, the online research hub will enable leaders across the globe to find the information they need to address homelessness more effectively, and ultimately to end it."
