We Belong to Each Other -- Love Flash Mob by Abby Wambach - 2017-12-13
Abby Wambach, text's publication from 2017-12-13 01:44:36 :
This is our friend Ari. Ari's mother was an IV heroin addict and Ari was born addicted.
When Ari was pregnant -- homeless and addicted-- a friend took her to the recovery center Hope on Haven Hill, where she became the first resident on the first day it opened.
They helped her get the prenatal care she needed, and helped her get clean. Ari named her son Haven -- after the home that gave them both a chance at life.
There are zero recovery-centered transitional homes in the state of New Hampshire - where moms can live with their babies while they get healthy. None.
In today's Love Flash Mob, we are raising the funds to provide the first and only home of its kind in the state. Ari and Haven will be among its first residents.
We cannot fix everything, but we can do this today. This holiday season, let’s keep these babies and mothers together. Let’s give them a place to feel safe, to be loved, to get healthy, to be TOGETHER.
We need $89,000 more to buy Hope on Haven Hill their house, and to get the warriors at Martha’s Place what they need to keep serving.
Let’s get these beautiful, worthy, warrior families a home for the holidays.
We belong to each other. And there is no such thing as other people’s children.
Please give what you can: www.togetherrising.org/give We are relying on thousands of small donations to make this miracle happen.
EVERY PENNY WE RECEIVE GOES TO PEOPLE WHO NEED IT.
GIVE A TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATION IN HONOR OF A FAMILY MEMBER, A FRIEND, A WARRIOR IN YOUR LIFE AND RECEIVE A PRINTABLE CERTIFICATE TO PUT ON THEIR HANDS THIS HOLIDAY.
