Honoring Mothers of Every Kind
This month we celebrate all the mothers--with or without children--who sacrifice, protect, inspire, and give themselves whole-heartedly to those they love. We recognize that motherhood looks different for everyone; but this Mother's Day, we all have something (and someone) to celebrate. Consider what it means "to mother:" to care for, teach, give life to, create, and nurture. These attributes are found within friends, coworkers, sisters, teachers, neighbors, and most importantly, yourself. So, in addition to recognizing the moms and mother figures in your life, celebrate the mother within you.
Alumni Perspectives
Here at House of Hope, our mission of treating substance use disorders, rebuilding lives, strengthening families, and empowering women gives us the amazing opportunity to support, learn from and be inspired by the many courageous women and their recovery stories. Our alumnae's testimonials and stories of hope illustrate the importance of the work House of Hope does. Stories can inspire, motivate and foster healing. We're looking to highlight those stories! If you are an alumnae who would like to share your recovery journey through House of Hope's website, social media, and marketing materials, please contact Margaret Yeates at myeates@houseofhopeut.org.
Thank you!
Made With Love - Donors Support Hope
House of Hope is very fortunate to have amazing donors from across the country. Kyla K., one of our donors from New Jersey, has sewn and donated over 200 masks to House of Hope during the COVID pandemic. Kyla says this about donating:
"The trials that House of House has faced over the past year has caused me to create and donate 150 face masks so far, with another 100 shipped this week. By far, my greatest enjoyment in all of this is mailing the envelope and receiving a return note detailing what my creations have meant to not only the organization but to those in need. Through the hours that I have spent volunteering, I have come to realize that I am truly making a difference to not only the organization, which may have limited funds, but to those who receive my personal gifts. My mission continues on....."
Many, many thanks to Kyla!
