Our Mother's House
Community responds largely to news articles
At
Christmas time, the Sarasota
Herald Tribune published several articles about the mothers and
babies of Our Mother’s House of Catholic Charities for the
Season of Sharing series.
As a result of those stories, there was great community
response in the form of generosity. Below is a letter from Our
Mother’s House to all who were so kind and thoughtful.
On behalf of the mothers
and children at Our Mother's House of Catholic Charities, we wish to
express our sincere appreciation to the community for their generous
support of our families this Christmas. Most of the families at Our
Mother's House enter with so very little – little family support,
money, belongings, education, self esteem, or hope. What they do
come with is a strong desire to improve their lives and provide for
their children. Despite these challenging times, the community
responded above and beyond our expectations. This tremendous
outpouring of support and generosity was overwhelming, and helped to
make Christmas a very special time for the families. Thank you for
giving and for making a difference in so many lives. It is greatly
appreciated.
