✨ Partner Spotlight ✨

Without the support of community partners, none of our work would be possible. A special thank you to our newest Partner, Glimmer Austin, for making a gift to our Central Texas location.

Founded to provide financial assistance and supportive resources to women and children emerging from crisis, including homelessness, Glimmer Austin is creating brighter futures for families in our community.

Their generous donation will help fund our Caring For Two Program at our Manor, TX location that directly support mothers and babies on their journey toward stability and healing. 💛

This is partnership 🤝

Kodiak Gas Services / Kodiak Cares Foundation has partnered with us for years through volunteering, donating, and hosting events that directly support the women and children we serve.

Recently, several of their team members — along with Santa Maria's Central Texas Building Committee, , Caterpillar , and Milwaukee Tool — took a road trip to our Manor location to restore our deck. Because of their hard work and dedication, the children in our care now have a safe, refreshed space to learn, grow, and play.

Thank you for your continued commitment to our mission and for showing up in such a meaningful way. 💛

Education is a powerful part of .

Residents in our substance use treatment and recovery housing programs have access to a full-time GED program on the property. Educators like Sister Kelly, who brings 15 + years of experience, build time into participant's schedules to study and prepare for their GED.

When women earn their GED, they see just how capable they are of unlocking new possibilities on their recovery journey.

What a day of transformation and impact! 🦋

Our 10th Annual RISE Luncheon was a beautiful celebration of women rising, families healing, and a community coming together to sow seeds of hope. Because of generous supporters, we raised over $330,000. A 45 % increase from last year!

From honoring our incredible partners to sharing powerful stories of recovery, the room was filled with purpose. Thank you to our wonderful sponsors, supporters, and friends who made this harvest possible!

When women rise, families can flourish.
