Janet's Climbing on Up Fundraiser

I give because safe housing is a basic human right of every individual along with an environment in which to build community, thrive, and meet one's potential. Eden Village will offer this opportunity to our unhoused friends.

Because of this, I'm raising $300 to assist in securing property for Eden Village and making Louisville a city where #NoOneSleeps Outside.

Jacob’s Ladder Outreach & Eden Village of Louisville

Building Hope One Rung at a Time

The Need

Every night, hundreds of men and women in Louisville have no safe place to sleep. Many live with disabilities, chronic illness, or the lasting effects of trauma that make traditional housing difficult to access. Shelters often cannot meet their unique needs, leaving them vulnerable, isolated, and without a place to call home.

Our Solution

Jacob's Ladder Outreach meets immediate needs by serving weekly hot meals, providing seasonal supplies, and building meaningful relationships with our unhoused neighbors. But we know a meal is only the beginning.

That's why we are building Eden Village of Louisville, a permanent tiny-home community on more than eight acres of land that we have proudly purchased. This community will include 25–40 fully furnished tiny homes, creating a neighborhood where individuals experiencing chronic homelessness can find safety, stability, and belonging.

Each resident will have:

• A permanent, affordable, and dignified home.
• A caring community of neighbors, volunteers, and support staff.
• Access to wraparound services, including healthcare, counseling, workforce development, and other essential resources.

This is more than housing.

It's belonging.

It's healing.

It's hope restored.

Our Progress

We are thrilled to share that Jacob's Ladder Outreach has purchased more than eight acres of land that will become the future home of Eden Village of Louisville.

This milestone marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter. With the property secured, our focus now turns to site development, infrastructure, and building the homes and community spaces that will transform lives for generations to come.

Your Impact

Your generosity will help us prepare the site, install essential infrastructure, construct the community center, and build the first tiny homes where our neighbors can finally come home.

Every gift is an investment in dignity, belonging, and lasting change.

Together, we are Building Hope One Rung at a Time—creating a future where every person has a place to call home.

Together, we can make Louisville a city where No One Sleeps Outside.
