Thank you for showing up and helping us to raise nearly $20,000! 🙏

Because of your generosity during our 2025 Holiday Appeal, the lights remain on, the floors are stable, the roofs are sealed, and hope is delivered to the last house on the last road. 🏡

Your support makes it possible for our neighbors to find safety, security, and a community that cares. Every gift mattered. Every act of generosity helped carry someone one step closer to stability and hope. 💞

From all of us at Mission at the Eastward, thank you for believing that restoration is possible and for being part of this journey. 🙌

Together, we’re rising to confront Maine’s growing housing crisis, one home and one relationship at a time. 🏡💗
