Voucher Program
Dégagé’s response to panhandling is to offer community members a helpful tool to use when they are approached for help. The $2 voucher can be used to purchase the services and items for which we charge a small fee for such as a meal, haircut, etc.
The voucher program provides a positive means for both immediate help and long-term support. Purchase vouchers and bless women seeking help on the street. Blessing them with a voucher brings them to Dégagé where staff is committed to get to know each person, calls each person by name, and builds trusting relationships to best serve each woman to achieve her personal goals.
Purchase Shirts

Every dollar spent on this 100% cotton; unisex t-shirt helps unhoused women in Grand Rapids attain sustainable housing.
