How was the money used?
Thanks to your generous donation, we were able to supply over 1,000 new undies and 2,000 pairs of socks for our MHM children.
Was there an unexpected benefit or a special outcome from this grant that you would like to share? Yes
If yes, please explain:
Our Dignity program is one of the most underfunded programs at Mothers Helping Mothers yet one we know is necessary. No child wants to have hand me down socks and undies so this program is to bring dignity to the mom’s and children who receive the items, fresh and new while using our services. While our goal is to give our mom’s a pair of new socks and undies for each child at each of their quarterly shopping visits, we often times don’t have any to give. This gift, sponsored 2 months of supplies so no child was left behind.
How many people were impacted by this grant?
1,000 children received a pair of new undies and 2,000 received new socks
Please indicate the number of women, children, and/or families residing in Sarasota and/or Manatee County who were directly impacted by this grant.
