Stability changes everything.
Your gift is the difference between a family slipping deeper into poverty and finding their footing again. You help keep kids steady through moments that could derail them, keep parents housed when the margins are too thin, and keep older adults safe in the place they call home. When you step in, stability holds — and that’s what allows someone to take real steps out of poverty.
Poverty is not inevitable.
Your gift strengthens the stability that helps families, children, and older adults work their way out of poverty. It keeps kids steady enough to focus on learning, especially reading—one of the strongest predictors of future opportunity. It helps parents stay safely housed so they can build financial skills, set goals, and take steps that increase their income over time. And it allows older adults to remain in the homes and communities they know, while still having access to support that helps them stay well.
Poverty tightens its hold when people don’t have the tools or guidance to move forward. Your support changes that. It keeps food on the table during hard moments and strengthens the programs that help people gain knowledge, build new skills, and make progress that lasts. With your gift, families and older adults have the support they need to move toward a more secure future—one step at a time.
