Uplift Milford

Sometimes, all it takes is one unexpected expense to put a family in crisis.

This past month, alongside our partners at Community Sharing, we were able to help local families facing eviction after major car repairs, furnace replacement, and unexpected medical expenses created financial hardship.

These were hardworking people doing everything they could to stay afloat — and because of this community, they didn’t have to navigate it alone.

Thank you for continuing to help us support local families when it matters most. 💙

A few favorite moments from this year’s Derby Gala 🌹

From the laughter and live music to the generosity and community spirit, this night was a beautiful reminder of what’s possible when people come together for a shared purpose.

Because of this incredible community, we’re able to continue supporting local families and students when they need it most.

Thank you for celebrating, giving back, and being part of such a meaningful evening.

One of the most meaningful moments of the evening was hearing from the Principal of Highland Elementary, Tricia Campbell, who shared about the everyday needs many students are facing.

Because of your generosity, we were able to raise $5,000 during the Derby Gala to directly support students at Highland Elementary.

This is what your support makes possible — meeting real needs, right here in our community.

We are so grateful to be part of a community that shows up in such a meaningful way. 💙

Because of you, we’re able to continue supporting local families and students when they need it most.

This is what it’s all about. 💙
