"I had taken a leave of absence from work about 2 months ago to deal with a lot of things I was struggling with mentally and emotionally in turn that caused me to fall behind on my bills but it saved my sanity and yall helped me with my rent last month. Last night I laid in bed after I put my kids to sleep and cried and prayed that God would just work things out for me and make it easier and this morning Ms. Quintina called me and told me that she wanted to pay my rent for the rest of the year and that broke me all the way down. I am so beyond grateful.. words cannot express my gratitude. God bless all of you and your families at the hope station. You don't understand what you've done for me." - K.R
Because of two generous partners.
100 less women will be homeless.
100 less children will not be without electricity.
Earlier this year, Hope Station was awarded a $24,000.00 grant from Jackson® to further our work of Homeless Prevention for single mothers. With this support from Jackson, we will be able continue our work helping single, working mothers and their children remain in their homes, providing much needed consistency and comfort in their lives.
Thank you, Bank of America Charitable Foundation for recognizing our need, helping to fund our mission and being a generous partner. This year’s grant will help to provide women and their children assistance on their rent or utilities bills.
