✨Volunteer Shoutout✨

Sue has a special gift for caring for people. She is quick to encourage, show love, and always makes others feel welcomed and valued. We are grateful for the way she brings encouragement to both moms and to the mentor team, serving not only as a mentor, but also in Educational Services, teaching parenting classes. Now, she is bringing that same caring heart to our new Mentor Connection gatherings, where she is co-leading to enrich and connect our mentors. 🥰

Thank you, Sue, for loving well and for sharing your time, wisdom, and heart with AGR!🫶

🎉Jobs for Life is up and running for the fall semester! 🎉

We have 3 amazing guys who have taken a big step toward growing, learning, and building skills that will prepare them for their career journeys.

Over the next 11 weeks, they’ll learn practical tools, from how to show up confidently for an interview to navigating conflict and so much more!

We’re so proud of and excited for these guys, and we can’t wait to see how they grow throughout their Jobs for Life (JFL) journey! 👏

📸 Pictured are two of our JFL Champions and one of our students!

Something NEW is happening for AGR mentors! 💙

We recently kicked off Mentor Connection, a new monthly gathering created specifically to pour into the people who pour into AGR families. ✨

And we just had our second Mentor Connection! 🤩 On the first Friday of each month, our mentors gather for breakfast, a devotional, worship, and practical tools to help them grow in their roles as mentors.

We’re so excited to see Mentor Connection continue to be a space where our mentors can grow, learn, be encouraged, and get to know other AGR mentors along the way! 🌱

And if you’ve ever thought about becoming a mentor, we’re always looking for more people who want to make a difference in the lives of AGR families. 💚

⭐️ DM us if you’re interested in becoming a mentor⭐️

The AGR stores provide everyday essentials for moms, dads, and kids, and right now, we’re especially in need of baby and adult hygiene items!🫧

From baby shampoo and body wash to adult shampoo, body wash, and deodorant, these simple essentials go a long way for AGR families🥰

🛒 Want to help? Shop our Amazon Wishlist and have items sent directly to AGR!

Every donation helps keep our shelves stocked and ready for the families who need them. 💚

“It’s really nice that you guys are providing appointments still and baby supplies while you’re under construction”🔨

It’s been 9 months of renovation, and throughout it all, our priority has been to continue being there for AGR families. That’s why we’ve continued to provide EVERY single program, even with all the changes!🙌

Having two locations has given us the space we need to keep everything going and continue serving families throughout the renovation.😎

So when we heard this AGR mom say this, it made us all happy!🫶
There’s nothing better than hearing that, even in the midst of all the temporary changes, families know that AGR is there for them!

P.S. The mom pictured is different from the mom who shared the quote
