Wedbush Securities, a leading financial services firm, is extending its partnership with Family Promise for a third consecutive year through a generous housing investment aimed at expanding transitional housing opportunities. The investment will support the expansion of a Tiny Home Program in Sacramento, CA.
The Tiny Home Program, operated by Family Promise of Sacramento in collaboration with WEforce for the Safe Harbor Community, currently features three tiny homes that provide transitional housing for up to 25 families annually. With Wedbush’s investment, the program will grow to include a new fourth home—further increasing its capacity to serve families on their journey to safe and stable housing.
“At Wedbush, we understand the importance of community and the power of giving back. This investment in transitional housing is a testament to our ongoing efforts to support families as they work towards sustainable independence,” shares Dan Billings, EVP and CFO of Wedbush.
As part of this year’s engagement, Wedbush colleagues will continue their tradition of giving back by assembling care packages with household supplies for the families who will move into the new home—offering warmth and support during a critical transition.
Since the national partnership between Wedbush and Family Promise began in 2022, Wedbush colleagues have created welcome home packages and donated birthday gifts for families in the Los Angeles area. In addition, the organization has supported essential programming that directly benefits families experiencing homelessness.
“Through Wedbush’s volunteerism, the first few years of our partnership have provided compassionate hospitality to families,” said Cheryl Schuch, CEO of Family Promise. “This year’s significant and generous investment in housing will gift families the comfort of home as they work themselves out of homelessness and into sustainable independence.”
