Today is GivingTuesday!
Help us provide 10 new couches for our Adolescent and Adult Residential buildings at CGE.
Each one becomes a space for recovery, reconnection, and renewal — where:
• Therapy sessions spark breakthroughs
• Mothers reunite with their children
• Women rest, connect, and begin again

Your gift today helps create the physical and emotional spaces where recovery truly begins. $1,000 funds a couch that changes lives.

Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday — a day to fill our homes with healing.
When you give to CGE, you’re not just helping one person.
You’re interrupting generational cycles of addiction, trauma, and family separation.

Your gift provides:
• Residential care that keeps mothers and children together
• Trauma and mental health counseling
• Parenting and relational support
• Postpartum care during the most vulnerable year
• Safe, healing spaces — like new couches, where recovery begins

This isn’t just recovery. It’s transformation.
But, you don’t have to wait to start tomorrow, you can donate today: https://form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/give/the-center-for-great-expectation/giving-tuesday-2025

The Truth Behind Recovery:
Every mother’s journey to healing is unique — and often begins with safety, trust, and care.
• Many mothers at CGE have carried trauma for years. When that trauma is addressed with compassion, real recovery can begin.
• The first year after giving birth is a fragile time. CGE stays by mothers’ sides, helping them remain strong, supported, and hopeful.
• Some mothers face even greater challenges due to systemic disparities. CGE provides culturally responsive, trauma-informed care that honors every woman’s dignity and restores a sense of safety.

This Giving Tuesday, your gift helps us continue this work — one safe space, one couch, one healing moment at a time.

Every couch tells a story — of trauma, recovery, and renewal.

At CGE, our couches are more than places to sit. They’re spaces where women rebuild trust, families reconnect, and healing begins. This Giving Tuesday, your gift can help us replace 10 worn couches and fill our homes with comfort, safety, and hope.

But, you don’t have to wait until Giving Tuesday—you can donate today: https://form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/give/the-center-for-great-expectation/giving-tuesday-2025

We were honored to host another CGE Information Reception, where Peg and Carolyn Flynn shared meaningful insights into our mission and impact. Guests viewed a moving video, toured our campus, and heard Carolyn outline what makes our treatment model truly unique.

These receptions offer a closer look at the healing, hope, and transformative care happening every day at CGE.

Stay tuned for details on our next Information Reception — we’d love to welcome you to campus and share more about our work.

Save the date: Giving Tuesday is December 2!

Meet Linda V.

“Volunteering at the Center for Great Expectations is a privilege. Dedicating my time to their mission is extremely fulfilling and rewarding. CEO Peg Wright and her staff are devoted to bringing hope back to the lives of their clients. I see firsthand how they help clients grow individually and as part of a community. I enjoy spending time with the clients and watching them learn, grow, and become more responsible parents. Watching their success is very overwhelming. It is a fabulous experience to volunteer alongside others who care about the clients and watching them succeed in starting a new life free of fear and building confidence for the future.” – Linda V. 💙

We are so grateful for Linda’s dedication, compassion, and commitment to our mission!
