<div>For the tenth time, we are looking to raise money for the Center for the Homeless in South Bend. The Center does tremendous work in a variety of ways for the community — read more about them here if you're not familiar — and after surviving another season of Notre Dame football it's nice to take control and do some Good for folks who could use a hand.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We didn't do this after the 2015 season and things didn't go so hot but since we launched the inaugural edition of Christmas Giving in December 2016 the football program has won us a lot of games. Is there any karmic causation or is it simply coincidence? Who can say, but it seems like a bad idea to tempt fate and not run this back. This year we again have Christmas Giving gear provided by Bridget Reynolds available <a href="https://rakesreport.dashery.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a> . Any proceeds from purchases made at the Report store in December — Christmas Giving designs or otherwise — will go to the CFH as well.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please consider sharing this with your friends, family and alumni groups. If you have any questions, please reach out via the provided contact link. For more on the CFH, executive director Steve Camilleri provided this explainer of what his group does in the community:

</div>
<div><em>The Center's mission is to help break the cycle of homelessness, and it's been such a gift to see people transform their lives and get back on their feet. Like a university, guests that arrive at CFH focus on their "major," and take classes, programming, and seek the help they need in the area they need it most. As they achieve success in that area, they wrap around other opportunities, much like elective courses, that can be for personal edification, enjoyment or education. All in all, CFH tries to meet the needs of everyone that walks through her doors with dignity and respect. We have found that each guest is a gift and has so much to give, and when you hold a high expectation of them, they rise to the occasion!</em>
</div>

</div>
<div>After hitting our initial goals of Jeremiyah Love career yards from scrimmage and total career all-purpose yardage from Love and Jadarian Price, we've moved to our final target: <strong>$8,753,</strong> one dollar for every point scored by Jackie Young in her career (WNBA, ND and high school). 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you and Go Irish.
