Brighten the holiday season for Ms. M and her family

 

Ms. M is a U.S. Army Veteran who sustained acute hearing loss and severely injured her knee serving the country. Her sustained injuries have made it difficult to provide for her three children and another on the way. Beyond providing for her family, they recently experienced a home break-in, and Ms. M is hoping for assistance repairing the door.

Give the gift of hope

 

Ms. C and her four grandchildren have endured seemingly endless obstacles over the past two years. They have been homeless twice, Ms. C’s income was taken away, her car has been stolen, their home has been broken into and they have been forced to move from house to house. Ms. C is on a fixed income now and continues to struggle to support her and her family financially. Adopting a family like Ms. C’s gives the gift of hope for the holidays.

A gift from you helps local neighbors

 

Ms. G was forced to flee her home country last year after a local gang began to threaten the lives of her two sons. Since arriving in St. Louis, she has struggled to navigate the immigration and asylum process. Additionally, she was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, has had to undergo chemotherapy and radiation and her family is overwhelmed by mounting medical bills.
