HOGAR SÍ
“Ending homelessness is not an ideal — it’s a collective duty we all share.”
HOGAR SÍ is a non-profit, independent organization founded in 1998 to end homelessness in Spain. For over 25 years, it has helped more than 10,000 people across 11 regions, focusing on housing solutions and defending human rights.
Since 2015, Alejandra Gere has been an official ambassador of HOGAR SÍ. As current members of Hogar Si Board of Trustees, Alejandra and Richard Gere are deeply involved in campaigns, political advocacy, and public actions to raise awareness about homelessness.
What We Do
Together with The Gere Foundation, HOGAR SÍ leads impactful initiatives such as:
- #2030CuentaAtrás (2030 Countdown): A campaign to hold Spain and Europe accountable for their commitment to end homelessness by 2030, aligning with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. An achievable goal, as proven by the Housing First model, which has already succeeded in countries like Finland.
- #LoQueNadieQuiereVer (What No One Wants to See): A powerful documentary, featuring Alejandra and Richard Gere, sharing real stories from people who have endured homelessness, aiming to collect over 37,000 signatures — one for each homeless person in Spain.
They also advocate for systemic change through direct political engagement: visiting the Spanish Senate, Congress, and La Moncloa to push for new housing solutions.
Why It Matters
Homelessness is not a personal choice; it’s a structural problem rooted in social, political, and economic factors. HOGAR SÍ believes that no one should live on the streets and that housing is a fundamental human right — not a privilege.
How We Help
- Providing supported, professional housing solutions that have proven success.
- Pressuring governments to fulfill their commitments to human rights.
- Raising public awareness through media, campaigns, and artistic projects like documentaries.
- Mobilizing citizens to become members and join the movement to end homelessness.
Our Impact
Over two decades of experience, political engagement at the highest levels, and a proven record of transforming lives — HOGAR SÍ, together with The Gere Foundation, continues to lead the fight to ensure that no one ends up homeless.
