Aurora`s mission is to prevent end homelessness in the community. Aurora believes that the community will be stronger when every man, woman and child have a safe, decent and sustainable place to call home. The meaning of the word, aurora, is a luminous light. In fact, each day the staff gives light to homeless individuals and families by re-establishing stability through providing access to resources, such as shelter, nourishment, healthcare and much more. Aurora serves over 1,000 men, women and children each year through programs and services. Moreover, Aurora is a leading catalyst in identifying gaps, establishing innovative and permanent solutions, and drawing together interested parties to ensure that homelessness becomes a problem of the past.

The YMCA of Pawtucket is comprised of five branches across the state: Family YMCA and Heritage Park YMCA Early Learning Center in Pawtucket, MacColl YMCA in Lincoln, Westwood YMCA in Coventry and Woonsocket YMCA in Woonsocket. With a focus on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility, strengthening communities is our cause. At the Y, we believe that lasting personal and social change happens when we all work together. Every day we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to be healthy, confident, connected and secure.
At the Obama Foundation, we are guided by a core belief: that ordinary people working together can change history. Our mission is to inspire those people to take action, empower them to change their world for the better, and connect them so they can achieve more together than they can alone. We were founded by community organizers, so when we seek change, we do it by bringing people together. That approach begins at home, on the South Side of Chicago, where we are building the Obama Presidential Center. The Center represents a historic opportunity for Chicago: a chance to build a world-class museum and public gathering space that celebrates our nation`s first African American President and First Lady, steps away from where he began his career, where she was raised, and where—together—they made their home. But that approach extends to all our work, whether it`s holding leadership training sessions in communities throughout the U.S., bringing local leaders together in countries around the world, working to support the global education of girls, or ensuring young men of color have pathways to opportunity. As President Obama has said, “we cannot solve the challenges of our time unless we solve them together.” So join us.
