As the holiday season approaches, we invite you to join us in a meaningful initiative: adopting a resident from Fresh Start (freshstarthome.org)! Many women arrive at our door without a home, feeling discouraged and broken. Your help in providing a joyful experience will make a difference in their lives.
At Fresh Start, we provide a nurturing environment where women can stay for up to a year, offering support, guidance and essential life skills. We help them find employment and secure housing, empowering them to build independent lives. One resident shared, “Staying at Fresh Start has been invaluable. I’ve learned to be a person I never imagined I’d become.”
Together, we can make a profound impact, reducing homelessness and supporting these women in their journeys. During the holidays, many may not have anyone with whom to celebrate. Your thoughtful gifts can bring them joy and warmth, reminding them they are valued.
This year, requested items include gift cards to Walmart and Bath and Body Works, VISA cards, movie tickets, slippers and fuzzy blankets. They also can provide a list for a specific resident. Another option is for you or your group to sponsor the food for the holiday party.
If you’d like to make a difference this holiday season, please contact LaCresha, our development coordinator, at (402) 475-7777 or Lacreshab@freshstarthome.org.
