Making a difference

A young mother of 5 just got into her own apartment and was in need of a few housekeeping items. Your generous donations provided her with the means to keep her house clean and provided other private items as well. She says “Thank you” and she wants to help others one day herself.

Homeless Addicted Veteran to Recovered Disciple of Jesus

He was a veteran suffering from PTSD and coping with life the only way he knew how: Self Medicating. He would self medicate with alcohol, drugs, or anything else that would temporarily ease or numb the thoughts that plagued his mind after the service. He self medicated his way out of his home, his job, and his life as usual.

He found himself on the streets in Daytona Beach, homeless, alone and unsure of life. He knew there had to be better; there had to be more. He had tried the “recovery thing” before and it would last for a little while, but somehow he always made his way back to the bottle. This time would be different though. This time, he sought the only true higher power – Jesus Christ.

From Addicted to Recovered

He picked a strong sponsor willing to grow with him and he moved into a sober house. It’s been a couple months sober now and it’s been hard to find a job when you don’t have a car. Your donations bought him a monthly bus pass to help him get back and forth to job interviews. Now, he has been graduated up to the next step in the sober house and he has a job! That’s right, he was hired.
