Global
Reach

We extended our reach into Jamaica and Ghana providing housing and supportive services to young mothers and their children. Your support allows us to maximize what we can do with even small amounts to bring young mothers additional educational opportunities and the life training skills that they will need to become independent, self-supporting women.

Housing
Programs

We help bridge the gap for families who make more than the poverty level but are struggling to get the hand-up they need to build a better life. We designed our program to house and help families while they create a better future for themselves (including savings, going back to school, job training, and more).

Community Outreach

Our Community Outreach Program focuses on linkage to community resources. We also offer community support by providing furniture, personal hygiene items, pampers, wipes, household items, and more.

Because of your support, we can courageously reach out into devastating circumstances and provide more than a handout, but a way up.
