Who We've Supported

Miracles Outreach:

Miracles Outreach has provided foster care and other services to more than 400 youth in Florida since 2000. They focus on children who are homeless, have been abused or were victims of Human Trafficking between the ages of twelve and seventeen. Their mission is to help children become self-sufficient in a loving and supportive family environment that is safe and secure in order to have a better quality of life. Michelle Walker, their founder told us of how she started the program as an afterschool outreach program in Sulfur Springs.

Autism Awareness shop:

The goal of Autism Awareness Shop is increasing the independence, employability and community inclusion of those on the Autism spectrum. Unfortunately, the 2nd leading cause of death amongst “friends” (people on the Autism spectrum) is suicide. After graduating from high school many are left with no prospects for employment and are often socially isolated. The Autism Awareness Shop aspires to improve the overall quality of life for our “friends” by increasing independence with life skills and by teaching the skills needed to find and maintain employment.
