The reality of the Bare Necessity Program

1/16/2015

It’s a label no one ever dreams of wearing: SINGLE MOM. It’s a life-taking, heart breaking, havoc-wrecking, poverty-threatening, want to scream at the top of your lungs, wish you could make the world understand kind of reality for many moms. How can you possibly help you wonder? One of the easiest and most helpful ways to contribute to local single moms is through our bare necessities program.The bare necessities program provides moms with items typically used in the home daily that they simply cannot due without. The tube of toothpaste you donate is the reason a little boy goes to school and has the confidence to smile. A bottle of donated shampoo was used by a single mother to wash her daughter’s hair at bath time, instead of it being rinsed with just water, leaving it oily and dirty. The deodorant was used directly by a single mom. She had an interview today and thanks to the generosity of donators she had the skills and professional appearance that landed her a new job opportunity that is going to benefit her family greatly!! The donated laundry detergent was used to wash all the families clothing. Not having to purchase the item meant that the single mother could afford another package of meat for a dinner meal this week and everyone would still have clean clothing. The box of donated tissues is used to wipe the nose of a little one with a cold as well as the single mother's eyes at the end of the night as she cries happy tears knowing she made it through another day. Picking up an extra item or two here and there while you are at the store doesn’t hit the pocketbook to hard. However, the items donated mean the world to a single mother and her family. Sometimes it truly is the little things. Thank you in advance for all you do as we help these moms throughout their journey, you are appreciated!
