Help Monique

Nov 20, 2023 | Donors

Have you ever felt hopeless?

What if I told you that with a donation today, you could provide hope for a better future to thousands of individuals and families like Monique’s in our community?

A single mother of two, Monique had done everything in her power to ensure her kids would have a better life than she had growing up. In and out of the foster system as a child, Monique never felt like she had a stable place to call home. As she grew older and eventually had kids of her own, she was determined to give her children a better life.

For many years, and with lots of hard work, she was able to do just that…

Then came:

…a $300/month increase in rent
…a $225/month cut to her SNAP benefits
…a 70% increase in utility costs
…and an unexpected surgery that left her out of work

As bills quickly mounted, her hope of sustaining that better life for her kids was beginning to wane.

Will you make a gift today and help us to continue serving our neighbors in need?
