SEARCH Homeless Services
For a Houston Without Homelessness
SEARCH pursues a mission of providing hope, creating opportunity, and transforming lives of men, women, and children who are trying to break free from the cycle of poverty and homelessness. We bring this mission to life every day by helping our clients obtain permanent housing, increase their income, improve their health, develop their children, and ultimately achieve independence. SEARCH maintains a vision of a Houston without homelessness.
SEARCH is committed to providing quality services to our clients and treating them with respect and dignity. We base our high standards and our daily actions on five basic principles. Every decision that we make, whether related to client matters or operational matters, is tested and measured against these values:
- Client-Centered: We create collaborative relationships with our clients.
- Learning Organization: We foster education, innovation, and discovery.
- Integrity: We do the right thing and make the right choice.
- Trust: We are credible, competent, and keep our commitments.
- Authentic Communication: We respectfully exchange ideas, information, and perspectives.
Today, SEARCH has become the region’s leading agency in helping people move from the streets into jobs and safe, stable housing and break free from the cycle of poverty and homelessness.
Our efforts now go beyond meeting basic needs to ensuring that our clients obtain permanent housing, increase their income, and live a more healthful life. We place our clients in a stable home and then provide extensive case management and wrap-around services to help them stabilize their lives in order to remain housed.

- DonateStock is the trusted facilitator of charitable gifts of securities, crypto and other non-cash assets for more than 10,000 nonprofits and donors.
- To better serve our stock and crypto donors, we host giving pages (like this one) so they can donate securities and crypto to other nonprofits from their DonateStock account.
- As this specific nonprofit has not yet registered with us, the donation will be processed and paid by Donatestock Charitable, Inc, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
- Once the gift is initiated, we will contact the nonprofit beneficiary to inform them of the gift and arrange payment.
- After the gift is received, we will provide a tax receipt to the donor and send the proceeds, gift details and donor information to the nonprofit beneficiary.
- Payments are normally sent via ACH within 2 weeks of receiving the shares or crypto. If we cannot reach the nonprofit beneficiary within 30 days, we will remit payment by check.
- There is no cost to donors or financial advisors. Nonprofits are charged a modest transaction fee that is in line with (or lower than) other online gifts.
