Our impact

To date, we helped change the lives of four families by assisting them to move into safe and affordable housing. Two of our moms enrolled in college, and one mom purchased a new vehicle, which is a signficant relief for Memphis locals as it is a car-centric city without a solid public transportation system. We also have a number of moms who have enrolled in or are seeking mental health treatment or support. We've brought ease to single moms' lives daily through our learning sessions, childcare, pantry, and accountability sessions. Moreover, we've contributed $10,000 in savings and helped to move moms toward economic security. 

Our goals

What we're doing has brought positive changes! We aim to serve more single moms through our current programs, and ensuring the sustainability and enhancement of our current services. We want to see more single moms:

• Move towards economic security through financial literacy and building a savings
• Obtain and maintain safe and affordable housing
• Secure affordable transportation 
• Enroll in college 
• Have dependable and affordable childcare
• Advance professionally and personally
