Story

•
3 Children 1 Adult

A single mother of three is currently facing serious health challenges that arose as a result of complications following the birth of her youngest child. She resides in Florida without any local family support, making it extremely difficult to manage her recovery while caring for her children. Her middle child has severe autism and requires consistent structure and specialized support, particularly during the summer when school is out. She is seeking assistance to cover the cost of a four-week summer camp specifically designed for children with autism. Attending this camp would provide her child with a safe, supportive, and therapeutic environment, while also giving the mother essential time to focus on her health, attend medical appointments, and stabilize her family’s well-being.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A courageous mother of three is preparing to move into a home she will one day own through a rent-to-own opportunity, a dream she’s worked hard to make a reality. Over the past few years, we've had the honor of walking alongside her and witnessing powerful moments of growth. She is nearing one year of sobriety, has bravely left a domestic violence situation, and has fought to get the support her children need to thrive. Now, she’s taking the next step toward stability - securing a home where she can plant roots and truly take ownership! However, the home needs a lot of work. Demolition, paint, cabinets, flooring, and more. It’s not move-in ready, and we can’t do this alone. We need the community’s help to turn this space into a safe, welcoming home for her and her children. This is more than just a renovation. It’s a chance to invest in someone who is becoming a leader in her community - someone committed to walking with and supporting other families on their journeys. Let’s come together and help build a strong foundation for this incredible mom and her kids. With your help, we can turn this house into a place of healing, hope, and long-term flourishing!
