HUGE thanks to United Fidelity Bank & Community President Ed Burns for donating this vehicle to a Fresh Start client! Good vehicles for our homeless families are one of the hardest things for us to come by, but one of the first things needed to get a good job!💙 Do you have a vehicle that would give a family a fresh start?

What are you carrying into September?

Maybe it’s a new goal.
A little more hope.
A fresh perspective.
Or simply the reminder that it’s never too late to begin again.

As we head into a new month, we’re reminded that fresh starts don’t have to be big.

Sometimes, they start with one small step.

And sometimes, that step is simply believing there’s something better ahead. 🤍

September, we’re ready for you.

Today, we toured The Lamb Center- a wonderful new resource for all those struggling-food, clothing, laundry service, or just someone to say "You are seen". God is so good!

There’s something about the end of August that makes us pause.

A season is changing.
New routines are beginning.
And there’s a quiet feeling that something new is ahead.

For some families, a fresh start can’t wait for the calendar to change.

At Fresh Start, we’re here to help families take that next step toward stability, opportunity, and hope…whenever they’re ready to begin.

A new season. A new chapter. A fresh start. 💙✨
