Be You (Basic Essentials for Your Outreach and Uplift) is a nonprofit organization committed to supporting the unsheltered by providing essential resources such as meals, hygiene supplies, and community outreach. We aim to restore dignity, offer hope, and empower individuals on their path toward stability and self-worth. Through direct support and human connection, we help every person reclaim the right to simply be themselves.

Why give?

At Be You , every gift makes an immediate difference. Your support provides more than meals, hygiene supplies, and basic essentials it restores dignity, offers hope, and reminds someone unsheltered that they are seen, valued, and not alone.

Since 2021, with the help of volunteers, we’ve been meeting people where they are by offering food, supplies, and most importantly, human connection. We currently service the greater Savannah and surrounding areas. Now, as we take the steps to officially register as a nonprofit, your generosity ensures that our outreach can grow stronger and reach even more individuals.

When you give, you help us:

  • Provide hot meals and hygiene kits to those living without shelter.

  • Deliver comfort and encouragement through direct outreach.

  • Build sustainable programs that empower individuals toward stability.

  • Expand our volunteer base and resources to serve more communities.

Every tax deductible donation, big or small, is an act of compassion that helps someone reclaim their sense of worth. Together, we can change lives, one essential at a time.

Be the gift. Be You….because everyone deserves the basics!

    A bottle of water or sunscreen may seem small but for someone living outdoors, it can prevent heatstroke and keep them safe during the hottest days.
