Thanks to you, Samantha is becoming a better mom
From addiction to recovery, you helped Samantha keep her family together.

Samantha holds her 2 1/2 year old daughter, Jade, and 1 month old son, Tyler
|
Samantha and her fiancé care for their two children, 2 ½- year-old Jade and 1-month-old Tyler. Samantha is clean, healthy, and more confident than ever.
Last year, unfortunately, that wasn’t the case.
Samantha was addicted to drugs and was required to go to rehab when she was 3 months pregnant.
“I was devastated,” she said. “I put myself in that situation and had to deal with the consequences.”
Samantha went to rehab and took steps toward sobriety. She was referred to Highfields’ Home-Based 0-3 Program which helps families with children aged 0-3 who have experienced stressful transitions or traumatic events.

New furniture from Dart Container brightens up the therapy room in Highfields' Lansing Office
|
|
For years, Dart Container provided furnished apartments to contractors. Now they no longer need the furnishings and they decided to assist people in need.
Dart wanted the furniture to benefit mid-Michigan families, and Highfields was one recipient of donations.
Dart donated beds, couches, dressers, lamps, television sets, cabinets, and more.
Many of Highfields’ clients struggle with issues like poverty and don’t have essential furniture. The donated items will provide comfort, stability, and create better homes for children and families.
