MAMA G'S HOME FOR TEENS INC·WEDNESDAY, MARCH 13, 2019·
As many of you know, and a lot of you do not know, I have been called to work with kids in foster care as an Advocate. I am fiercely protective of my teenagers, who are the most unwanted kids, who have been cast aside by their families. Hurt and dejected, they are my loves, my babies and I am the Mama G they don’t live with. We established “Mama G’s Home for Teens” as our 501(c)(3) with a mission to help these teens into adulthood and stability. We send this plea out to all who would like to aid these youths. When they age out of the system that has been so horrible to them...with nothing, we are there for them. John & I help them get established in places to live, connecting the youths with community support and then we are the mom & dad they need to guide them into adulthood. But they need help and so do we. They start life as an adult with nothing. They need donations of kitchen items, bathroom supplies, linens, towels, light bulbs, lamps, furniture (is always GREATLY appreciated!!!)
If you can clean out your home... furniture, ANYTHING, we can use it all, except your stuff that should have been sent to the dumpster long ago....We can always, always use toiletry items for guys and girls, gently used clothes, slides, sneakers, sandals, beds, and hair (yes, hair, many of my kids are African American and need their hair done). So, if you haven’t guessed it by now, everything that is gently used, we have a home that needs it! If you want to help with gift cards or $$, most of these families shop at Winne Dixie, Aldi’s, Dollar Tree, or Walmart. Will you help others with nothing in life? We established “Mama G’s Home for Teens” as our 501(c)(3) and we will provide receipts for all your tax-deductible donations. Ginger Rockey-Johnson & John Sheid
