For more than 20 years, Board Member Ollie Moore has faithfully supported Nicholas House families through monthly dinner service 💙

Since 2000, Ollie has helped ensure families at Nicholas House are cared for through warm meals on a monthly basis. Even when he’s unable to attend personally, he continues the tradition by coordinating friends and colleagues to step in and serve in his place.

We are so grateful to his friend who recently gave their time to prepare and serve dinner for our families. Their generosity, compassion, and willingness to serve helped create a meaningful evening of care and connection.

Thank you to Ollie and all of the wonderful volunteers who continue to support Nicholas House families year after year ✨

Building confidence and creating opportunities 💼✨

Through our partnership with Dress for Success, families at our DeKalb County location at Arbor Crossing are gaining valuable tools to support their employment journeys and long-term stability.

Each month, Dress for Success leads Workforce Development Workshops that help participants strengthen career readiness skills, build confidence, and prepare for success in the workplace. These sessions provide more than professional development — they help empower parents as they work toward greater independence for their families.

We are also grateful to the Arbor Crossing apartment community for generously providing their model unit as a welcoming space for these workshops, creating an environment where families can learn, grow, and connect.

Together, these partnerships are helping families take meaningful steps toward stability and self-sufficiency 💙

Thank you to CoreNet for spending a Day of Service with us at Nicholas House this spring 💙

Their team rolled up their sleeves and made a meaningful impact across our campus by restoring gutters, refreshing and painting the children’s playhouse, and helping organize and deep clean our kitchen spaces.

These hands-on projects help create a cleaner, safer, and more welcoming environment for the families we serve every day — and they remind our community that they are supported and cared for.

We are so grateful to the CoreNet team for dedicating their time, energy, and talents to making a difference for families experiencing homelessness.

Thank you for helping make Nicholas House feel even more like home! ✨

💙 Employee Spotlight: Akuba

Meet Akuba, a dedicated case manager of our New Horizons program in Atlanta, whose path to Nicholas House has been shaped by resilience, compassion, and a commitment to helping others.

From a young age, Akuba knew she wanted to make a difference. After 12 years in the corporate world, a personal health journey led her to return to social services—where her heart had always been.

Before joining Nicholas House, Akuba worked closely with young girls who had experienced severe trauma and exploitation. The work was intense, but it reinforced her belief in the importance of showing people they are worthy of care, support, and love—without conditions. She built meaningful relationships and became a steady presence in the lives of those who needed it most.

That same passion now guides her work with families at Nicholas House.

Akuba is driven by the belief that every family deserves the opportunity to move beyond survival and experience a different kind of life—one filled with possibility, stability, and hope.

“The goal is for families to not just have a place to live, but to be able to maintain it and build something lasting for themselves,” she shares.

For Akuba, the most rewarding moments aren’t always the big milestones—they’re the everyday victories. Watching families celebrate holidays in their own homes, seeing children thrive, and hearing parents express joy in having a space of their own are the moments that stay with her.

Her work isn’t without challenges. It can be emotionally demanding, and progress doesn’t always come easily. But through it all, Akuba remains committed to walking alongside families—encouraging them, advocating for them, and helping them see possibilities beyond their current circumstances.

She also wants supporters to know just how much their generosity matters.

“Even if you don’t see everything that happens day to day, your support truly makes a difference for our families.”

When she’s not working, Akuba enjoys recharging with music, audiobooks, and time spent with close friends and family.

Thank you, Akuba, for the heart, dedication, and compassion you bring to Nicholas House every day. 💙

In April, we were grateful to welcome The Barnes Law Office with the Georgia Association of Women Lawyers to Nicholas House for a special dinner service 💙

Their team provided not only a warm meal for the families we serve, but also meaningful time and fellowship that helped create a sense of comfort, connection, and community.

We are especially thankful to Antoinette Milton for helping make this opportunity possible and for supporting our families in such a thoughtful way.

Thank you for partnering with us to care for families experiencing homelessness and helping make Nicholas House feel even more like home. ✨

When C’Arica and her four children came to Nicholas House, they were facing homelessness, grief, job loss, and overwhelming challenges that left their family searching for stability and hope.

Through our New Horizons program, C’Arica’s family was connected to permanent supportive housing, case management, and mental health services that helped them begin rebuilding their lives step by step.

Today, her children are thriving in school, the family has a safe and peaceful place to call home, and C’Arica has secured employment while continuing to work toward long-term self-sufficiency.

Her story is a powerful reminder that when families are met with compassion, stable housing, and supportive services, healing and transformation are possible 💙

At this year’s Dream Builders event, we were honored to present the Dream Builders Impact Award to the Silberman Family, with special recognition to Mark Silberman, for their extraordinary generosity, leadership, and commitment to Nicholas House families 💙

The Dream Builders Impact Award recognizes individuals and families whose support helps turn possibility into reality for the families we serve — and the Silberman Family embodies exactly that spirit.

During the evening, Mark shared a powerful reminder that every family has dreams, goals, and aspirations for a better future. When supporters invest in Nicholas House, they are helping make those dreams possible through stable housing, supportive services, and opportunities for long-term success.

We are deeply grateful to the Silberman Family for their continued partnership, compassion, and belief in the potential of every family we serve ✨
