Because of YOU...
You are the biggest
cheerleaders for our girls & young women. So, we want to share
some accomplishments from this year with you.
- Two high school graduations & enrollments in college;
- A young woman at the TLC succeeded in moving into her own apartment all while working on her Master's in Theology;
- Two girls transitioned from the Group Home to the Transitional Living Center (TLC);
- Introduction of a free, public educational forum with the initial topic of homeless youth; and
- More funds raised in the campaign to build a second transitional living center.
YOU have given our girls & young women a safe, stable home & place to succeed. On their behalf, we thank you.

Our Heroes
Carpet Services answered our need for new flooring in our Group Home. Our many thanks to Jon Schneider & Sam Prager, owners of Carpet Services, who are donating carpet and tile for the downstairs and laundry room.
We would also like to express our sincere gratitude to the Ninnie L. Baird Foundation for their $6,000 grant, which will cover costs to replace the carpet on the second floor of the home.
Thank you for your incredible generosity!
