About Homefront
Homefront Inc’s largest recent grants go to the NJ Coalition to End Homelessness for mental health services at homeless shelters, with $250,000 awarded in both 2024 and 2025. That pattern points to a funder that concentrates on shelter-based support rather than broad, general-purpose philanthropy. Across the recent grants list, the foundation backs organizations working on emergency shelter infrastructure, behavioral health integration, crisis response capacity, and services for people experiencing homelessness. The giving profile is strongly tied to New Jersey shelter providers and homelessness-serving groups. Homefront Inc repeatedly supported Homeless Solutions Inc, Family Promise of Hunterdon County Inc, Catholic Charities - Diocese of Methuchen, The Gateway Family YMCA, Rescue Misson of Trenton, Visions and Pathways, Christian Caring Center Pemberton Inc, Salt and Light Company Inc, Anchor House Inc, Home of Somerset County Inc, Women Aware Inc, and Elizabeth Coalition to House the Homeless Inc. A smaller grant also went to the Salvation Army in Alexandria, Virginia. The recurring awards suggest steady support for organizations already operating in the homelessness response system, especially those serving shelter residents and people with mental health needs. The foundation’s grants align with a focus on infrastructure development, capacity building, direct service support, and program expansion.
What Homefront Funds
Homefront Inc’s clearest theme is shelter-linked mental health support. The NJ Coalition to End Homelessness received $250,000 in 2024 and again in 2025 for mental health services at homeless shelters, showing that behavioral health is a major part of the funder’s homelessness strategy. A second cluster centers on emergency shelter operations and development. Homeless Solutions Inc received $47,750 in both 2024 and 2025 for building resilient infrastructure, development, and growth for emergency sheltering, while Family Promise of Hunterdon County Inc received $42,750 for the same purpose in both years. The foundation also supports a wider network of shelter providers through similarly framed grants. Catholic Charities - Diocese of Methuchen, The Gateway Family YMCA, Rescue Misson of Trenton, and Christian Caring Center Pemberton Inc each received awards for building resilient infrastructure, development, and growth for emergency sheltering. Those repeated project descriptions point to a consistent emphasis on shelter capacity and operational resilience.
