Family Promise Children's Program Update
We remain committed to working alongside children and providing them with helpful and supportive settings. That's why growing our Children’s Program is so important to us and our community.

Last year, you all helped tremendously by donating desks, school supplies and snack bags for distance learning and volunteers helped by leading extracurricular activity lessons. This year, most children will return to school in person.

So, we will be transforming the room again to meet the current needs and will focus on creating a comforting environment for the children and we'll provide mentoring, tutoring, youth nights and more! We would be so grateful if you joined us. Our team has put together a thoughtful list of items they would like to complete the room. Please consider donating and watching the video above for more info! Thank you!
Wrigley Coffee

We’re excited to share updates on Wrigley Coffee - a coffee shop where we'll work alongside parents to help train and connect them to permanent employment. Through Wrigley Coffee, our goal is to give un-housed parents a fresh start and a path to independence through coffee, career training, and community. This will allow families a space to focus on building skills and mindsets for sustainable careers in a supportive environment with a welcoming community with trained staff who are understanding of their background. For a closer look at Wrigley Coffee, follow us on Instagram and Facebook @WrigleyCoffee
