We recognize the role homelessness plays in shaping a sustainable future.
Our vision is to be at the forefront of innovation, fostering a community of Women and enthusiasts united by a passion for creating a life worth living. Leaving an indelible mark on the landscape of tomorrow.
Our vision is to help others who find themselves without a home, a warm bed, a hot meal or just a friend who gets it. We were unhoused for nearly 16 years and had to choose life; it’s not an easy thing to do without hope.
A wise Woman once told me this… ‘Despair cannot exist where hope dwells.’ We have lost everything many times: our home, belongings, mate, kids, cars, friends. Basically, anyone I have EVER known. Trust is almost impossible to maintain.
People just turn their backs on folk like us because fear and insecurity come easy. Hostility toward the unhoused is widespread. It is hard to feel welcome anywhere. Additionally few of the agencies who claim to provide housing don’t actually provide housing. We have worked with several agencies that provide gift cards. They help, but not very much.

Ari Goode Founder & CEO
I have become SCRWD. I never had a tech background. I was a Real Estate Agent for 30 years. I became ill with cancer and a crumbled spine. One of my kids invited me to California to their spare bedroom. After several types of surgeries I was in remission and had my spine rebuilt. Then my kid told me to move out and get an "independent life". Well I have been Homeless ever since. So I became SCRWD, one of the hated homeless. Now I choose to help others with SCRWD.ORG. Somehow I will figure out a way. Maybe I can provide hope.
