Founded in 2017, Down Home gets its name from the famous Alabama song. Like the song, Down Home believes in the power of community and treating each person we serve like family. Our founders, Jake and Jenessa Fillipi, started Down Home after seeing the struggles of families and children living in a space with nothing but the clothes they were wearing. By working with local partner agencies, generous donors, and dedicated volunteers, Down Home transforms an empty space into a home to embrace, feel secure, and empower families to succeed and ultimately break the cycle of homelessness. Since December 23, 2017, Down Home has served over 90 families, impacting almost 300 lives in the community! We invite you to be a part of the Down Home story and impact!
