MOMMAS HOUSE ONGOING EVENTS
     
     
  EVENT: CAPITAL FUND CAMPAIGN  
  DATE: ONGOING  
 
EVENT DESCRIPTION:At this time, we are trying to raise enough money to purchase a house. It is a huge undertaking for us but it is imperative as our waiting list is long. It is so difficult to say to a homeless mother that there is no room for her and her child.

This past year has been one of continued growth but with this comes greater demand for our services. Our entire operating budget is a little over $500,000, which is very lean. To raise between $500,000 to $600,000 to buy a house is very intimidating and we can only hope to reach those who can help us. Your contribution would enable us to provide a safe, clean, supportive environment for these young families to begin their lives together. We are halfway “home”! Please consider investing in the future of MOMMAS House and the women and babies we serve. 

We would be most grateful if you would consider hosting a reception at your home/business or anywhere feasible to accommodate an intimate gathering. Light refreshments only, as the main purpose is to have a platform on which to explain what MOMMAS House is and what it hopes to accomplish. There will be no high pressure tactics used, only the distribution of information and ways one might help if so inclined.
