Danielle Martin

Hearthside was born from a simple but powerful idea: everyone deserves a place where they feel safe, supported, and surrounded by community. For Danielle, the name 'Hearthside' brings to mind the warmth of a fireplace, family gathered close, and the comfort of knowing you’re not alone. After overcoming her own mental health struggles with the help of others, Danielle realized just how vital emotional support and connection are—especially for those facing homelessness. Hearthside will be a shelter specifically for couples, offering not just a roof over their heads, but a place where they can find immediate help in times of crisis. Whether someone is struggling with chemical dependency, mental health challenges, or simply needs a safe place for the night, Hearthside will be there. The shelter will connect people with providers and offer emergency housing, ensuring that no one has to wait for regular business hours to get the help they need. Every person who walks through the doors will be met with compassion and support, every step of the way. To make this vision a reality, Danielle is raising funds to acquire and remodel a building for Hearthside and to develop an app that will help staff track client needs and vital services that clients need access to. She isn’t just asking for donations—she’s asking for your help in spreading the word. By sharing this fundraiser, you can help Hearthside reach investors and supporters who believe in the power of community and immediate care. Together, we can build a place where love and support help people find their way home.
