Support an Expecting Mom and Her Unborn Baby

Normal Request
AGAPE shares the stories of two Marias, one a former foster teen mom and the other an infant, born to a foster child of 14 at just 24 weeks. Both stories, in other circumstances, could have ended in tragedy. Still, thanks to loving foster families and the support of our church communities, both Marias were shown the love and support to allow them the chance they deserved to thrive against the odds of their situations. These Marias are the inspiration for the new name of a program in the Clarksville area that will serve pregnant and parenting teens. Through the generosity of a group of donors, AGAPE has purchased a spacious house in the Clarksville area where a single foster mom has agreed to care exclusively for teen girls and their babies. As AGAPE prepares to open Maria House this summer, opportunities are now available to bless this home by donating funds for furnishings that will provide these teens with a well thought out space of items hand-picked just for them. We have been blessed by a furniture owner in our community who is generously offering us a discount as well as tax-exempt purchases for this home. We welcome you to sponsor an entire room or donate any amount today to show them the hospitality and love we desire to offer them while they're in our care. We need furnishings for a second Teen Room which includes a full bed, a dresser w/mirror, a mattress set, a chest, set of nightstands, a pair of lamps, and a small desk.
