Thank You!
Each quarter, Book Riot donates 2% of its gross revenue to one charity. After being nominated and selected as one of five finalists to receive this donation this quarter, Housing Works won more than 50% of the votes during the November 22nd through December 5th period of public voting on bookriot.com. Therefore, with this strong majority of votes, we are pleased to announce that Housing Works has been officially chosen as Book Riot’s first-ever “We Practice Charity” Beneficiary.
Thank you to the Housing Works community — we could not have done it without your support (and, of course, your votes)!
We are grateful to Book Riot for this opportunity and their commitment to charitable giving.
Congratulations and many thanks to all. Way to go …

‘Tis the Season…for Regifting!
Not ready to brave the holiday shopping crowds of Herald Square? Trying to decide if that neighbor, co-worker, or second cousin is gift-worthy? Exit Creative Company has created a virtual solution to your very real problem. The Regift Shoppe has the perfect e-card, sure to make that not-so-special someone laugh out loud. Visit regiftshoppe.com, and for every virtual regift sent, Exit will make a donation to Housing Works.
Enjoy, and Happy Holidays from Housing Works and our friends at Exit Creative Company!

Give a second chance. Give the gift of Housing Works Membership.
Don’t make it another year filled with socks and ties. This holiday season, give something meaningful that can actually make a difference in people’s lives.
Buy a Housing Works Membership as a gift for someone you know, and you’ll be giving an even greater gift to the homeless individuals living with HIV/AIDS that Housing Works serves — a second chance.
Plus, when you give the gift of membership, we’ll send you a special gift in thanks. Choose from either our limited-edition thermal mug to help you warm up this winter, or our new tote bag to help carry all that holiday shopping!
To buy a membership for someone you know, call or email:
