We invite you to be a Friend Helping Families
Many of the families served by DFYF are economically challenged and many are facing difficult situations. This year, instead of giving gifts, our Friends Helping Families program will provide your donated amount to our client families in need, giving parents/guardians a sense of ownership and dignity to meet their family’s need, whether it’s a gift for a child or groceries. We will identify amazing parents/guardians that are doing the right things but just need a little help.
You provide an emotional lift when you are a Friend Helping Families
by Jason Moncrief, After-School Supervisor
Fifteen-year old Alijah has attended after-school programming since he was eight, and his two older sisters also attended. They are being raised by their grandmother, who is in her 70’s. She shared that our support from Friends Helping Families really helps as she is doing her very best to provide for 3 teenagers on her own. Your support makes it possible for our families to provide for their household – whether for a holiday meal, groceries, gifts, or toiletries, your gift helps alleviate the anxiety holidays can bring. Your support of Friends Helping Families makes a true difference.
