Hi AMHH Supporters,This fall was full of so many things to be thankful for… Discover Day Academy, a private school in Bonita Springs and The Werley Life Group from Riverside Church held a Bare Necessities drive, raising awareness and collecting much needed goods for our families; Royal Realty of SW FL and Express Tires Distributor sponsored 21 single mom families with a full Thanksgiving dinner.  Right down to the table cloth. The countless number of community members, businesses and organizations that helped make sure families in SWFL had something under the tree on   Christmas morning.  We are so thankful for each and every contribution you all have made.  Every year you amaze us!

Our very first AMHH Painting fundraiser was so much fun.  A Big Thank You to Masterpiece Mixers Cape Coral for hosting us.  Thank you to all who attended and raised money to support our families. We were impressed by all your paintings and your energy and excitement.  This is exactly what our families need, momentum, support, heroic actions, like the ones you take, to continue to know they are not alone… to see that they are supported.  As fall comes to an end we see the city brighten with Christmas lights.  As everyone prepares for festivities, here at A Mom's Helping Hand of SWFL we are preparing for our favorite time of year…the season for giving. 


Christmas Spirit
More families reach out to us during the month of December than any other month of the year.  Likely, families are looking for support to help themselves and their children make this special time of year a little less stressful.  They are looking to their community to provide them with the warming spirit the holidays are supposed to bring.  We are so glad to be here to meet the expectations of love and kindness they are hoping to find.  Are you looking for ways to help out families this Christmas?  It's not too late.  There are so many different ways to help.  Host a Bare Necessities or last minute Toy Drive at your office, collect gift cards.  Thank you to those that hosted Christmas parties and asked your guests to bring a gift for our moms and kiddos.  You were creative.  Please let us know any ideas you may have for contributing to make next year's holiday season a memorable one for our AMHH families. 
Our Christmas Party for our families was held on December 17th at one of our mom's new home, she is the first mom in the group to become a first time home owner!  We are so very proud of her and all of her accomplishments!

Give the gift of self-esteem: Our moms sometimes come into the program weary and beaten up by life, with low self-confidence. But when they begin to work the program, and see themselves making progress, accomplishing their goals and moving forward, their self-esteem grows. Empower single moms today with the gift of self-esteem.
