We LOVE seeing this! ❤️ This is exactly what can happen when organizations come together to remove barriers and create real opportunities for families to move forward.

Congratulations, Carlos! 🚗❤️

Thank you to Second Chances Garage Inc. for the incredible work you do, and to the Delaplaine Foundation, Inc. for investing in solutions that make such a tangible difference. We’re so grateful to be a small part of helping Carlos and his family access this opportunity.

And we have to share what Michele Corr, Executive Director of the Delaplaine Foundation, said about Jake, who helped connect Carlos to this opportunity: “Jake, you are clearly so great at what you do and a real gift to the people you serve at Beyond Shelter!” We couldn’t agree more!
