Your Neighbor, Is My Neighbor, Is Our Neighbor.

Our Adopt-A-Neighbor program is the giving side of our services.

Since 2019, this program allows neighbors to help neighbors who are in need of items & supports that we believe are key components in empowering women to rebuild, rediscover, and bloom into their full potential. This program supports women rise from adversity into lives of strength, purpose and wellness by providing the Basic Need Items that are the building blocks to better Education, Employment, Vocational, Housing and Transportation logistics in their lives.
Some Basic Need Items cover day-to-day items such as clothing, shoes, linens, hygiene items, baby items, while some Basic Need Items are a more specific to families such as household items.
