Every night Fresh Start provides a safe place for 24 women to rest. Many, after their first few days, say it’s the best sleep they’ve had in a long time. They could actually relax and not feel a need to be hypervigilant.

Could you help us reach our Give to Lincoln Day goal? There’s a few hours left before the deadline of 11:59pm tonight.

It's almost one week until !

💵We're proud to report that last year, 72% of the women in our care left our program with a new savings fund. Creating a savings fund/plan is often the first step many of our residents take, and it's vital to help them overcome homelessness. But many of them wouldn't make it to this vital step without a safe place to sleep, eat, and recover, like Fresh Start.

That's why we need your support this Give to Lincoln Day. So we can not only provide a safe environment for women, but also an empowering one that follows them every step of the way.

🕑Giving lasts today to May 28.

Many thanks to these lovely ladies from Haleon for your help in preparing the space for our garden project! We'd also like to thank Stonebrook Exterior for their help with finishing up a very special hardscaping project! Stay tuned to see the finished product for the garden!
