"As much as homelessness plagues this country, you still feel like you're the only going through it. Being around other people who were going through the same thing as me made the blow a little easier to take. There is a comradery there. I met some wonderful people along the way. I was able to find a career path in banking because of my connections with FP. I was able to take advantage of the resources they provide like workshops. "

"IT'S JUST TEMPORARY!!! FP will provide you the tools; you just have to do the work. And believe me, they'll be your biggest cheerleaders even after you leave! Rooting for you to win and to never come back!! "

"It’s been almost ten years since I was in the program and I just wanted to say thank you for EVERYTHING you did for me and my son. We moved to Fort Lauderdale a few years ago and he is going to high school in the fall. We are doing excellent and I have been thinking of Family Promise a lot lately. When I met you I was depressed, lost and struggling to make ends meet. Through the grace of God and the angels of Family Promise, I am thriving. We have been traveling, and enjoying life with no snow here in the south and I couldn’t thank you enough for all that you’ve done. You made an impact on my life indefinitely!!"

"Family Promise is here to help you get back on the right track. Nobody is going to judge you. They make you feel like you’re in a family. It was very warm. I’ve gone from feeling like a failure to knowing I can do anything!"

"We are so thankful that we found Family Promise. We have only been in the program for a short while but already they have helped us so much. We have already met with our financial coaches and are excited to start saving money. This program is beyond our expectations! "

"Since moving into Family Promise, the girls are sleeping all night; we have a routine to go to bed that we didn’t have before. We are having family time. We have found time for spirituality and gratitude and the kids are happy to join in. We are more stable and productive. Our lives have improved in so many aspects due to Family Promise’s generosity and support. We are so grateful. "

"I feel like there’s hope and a lot of people out there for me. Family Promise has given my family the opportunity to have a brighter future and showed me that I am able to do all the things I hoped for. Family Promise has been so supportive of me. They were my backbone the entire time I was in the program. "

"Family Promise became my support system. I think of them as family. They gave me the strength and the encouragement to achieve things I thought I would never achieve. They were and will always be a part of me, a part of my family, a part of my heart. Another thing I gained from FP was that I am now able to share my story – about how this can happen to anyone."
