Over $1 Million in Rent Assistance Distributed!We are thrilled to report that Loaves & Fishes has provided over $1 million in rent assistance through the DuPage Emergency Rent Assistance Program, helping 141 households (378 individuals) in Aurora and Naperville stay safely housed.
This program, implemented by DuPage County Community Services, offers assistance with past due and prospective rent in most cases to help families recover from financial hardship. Loaves & Fishes proudly served as an access point for families in need in Naperville and Aurora.
We captured the moment that CEO Mike Havala and Mary Boulos, Assistant VP of CARES Programs, signed the check that pushed us over the $1 million milestone in rent assistance distributed!
As one client shared: “When life took an unexpected turn, Loaves & Fishes became my lifeline… This provided more than just rental assistance; it restored my hope.”
This impact was powered by our incredible CARES volunteers and staff and made possible through the support of DuPage County Community Services —Thank you for supporting this life-changing work. Your support is restoring hope and transforming lives every day.
