Letters of Valuable Encouragement (L.O.V.E) Program

Receiving a letter of encouragement can make all the difference between a parent persevering or giving up. We invite you to join our L.O.V.E. Program and remind families that a brighter future is possible!
How it works:
1
Commit to writing an encouraging message to an assigned family once per month.
2
Receive progress of the family, so you can tailor your letters.
3
Be a part of breaking the cycle of poverty through your words
