challenges facing our world today.

Most look around today and see only gaps—
income, equality, race, gender, opportunity, and more.

At The Same House, we see bridges.

Rooted in the unifying words of
Congressman John Lewis:

We’re one people.
We’re one family.
We all live in the same house.

The Same House accelerates solutions that bring communities together and help bridge social and economic divides.

Our Goals

Economic Mobility

Our initiatives not only raise funds but also elevate community awareness and engagement, fostering a deeper understanding of local challenges.

Social Connection

We bring together corporate, nonprofit, government, and individual leaders in collaborative philanthropic efforts.

Take The
Same House Pledge

The Pledge is a commitment to take meaningful action toward bridging economic and social divides in your own community. The Pledge is open to all – philanthropists, businesses, city & cultural leaders, and everyday Americans who seek to come together to do good together. The Pledge is a national campaign with a local impact.

Take the Pledge

We invite you to join leaders in communities across the nation who have pledged their time, talents, and treasures to their communities. Together, our community has committed to deploy over $40M as part of The Same House Pledge.

Leading Yourself: The Foundation of Authentic Leadership

“You cannot lead others unless you can first lead yourself.” – John C. Maxwell As we enter Thanksgiving week, a season rooted in gratitude and reflection, I want to take a moment to thank each of you—members of The Same House, our community sponsors, beneficiaries, and all who engage with our work. Your commitment to our shared vision brings us together in powerful ways. Every act of support and collaboration strengthens our mission and creates impact that’s impossible to achieve alone. I am deeply grateful to each of you for the role you play and for banding together with us in this important work.
