We have a facility in Richland Hills. Call us at 817-427-1111. Open Mon-Thu. We have events too. We are a unique agency founded by Brenda Jackson and others to change lives forever.

We are feeding and helping up to 300 people some months.

We always need canned goods and boxes meals. If you can help please call us at 817-427-1111. It is with this knowledge, and many years of experience and education, that has caused every member of our staff and board to be unique and unlike any other agency.

We will help them break the cycle of abuse, homelessness, and pain. We offer services to help our women and children recover completely and have a wonderful, bright and successful future. We need your help! Most important is that Jesus changes them forever. We are just his arms and feet and we get to help him give hope to hopeless world. If you want to bless someone, or show kindness we are place you need to come too. We are proud to be faith based and get to change lives for eternity.

Special thanks to Deetz Shepherd. He was awarded our Home Town Hero award yesterday at event.

Deetz is a rare person that serves God and put others before himself. He helps with our annual backpack drive at his church. He also does our annual Christmas Gift Event every year. He and his team of friends are often delivering gifts up to December 24 to moms who have no cars. They do this because they want to make sure no child is forgotten.

He is a blessing to us, and our families. We are so proud to honor Deetz for his 11 years of service for our ministry.

Thank you Deetz!

Sincerely,
Brenda Jackson

Special thanks to Church of Keller,
A very special thank you to all of you for serving at our facility during your Annual Serve Day today. Your team worked so hard—mowing, edging, painting, trimming trees, planting flowers, and so much more. Everything looks beautiful, and we are incredibly grateful.
This marks your sixth year of coming alongside us, and your continued faithfulness means more than words can express. You are such a tremendous blessing to our ministry and to the families we serve.
Thank you, Milestone, for blessing us in such a meaningful way today.

With sincere gratitude,

We want to send a very special thanks goes to you to Colleyville. They hosted our Day to Shine Event on Saturday. It was a wonderful event today. As I reflected on everything, I just want to say that it was truly perfect. We especially loved waiting to serve the food until after the baptism—it encouraged all of our moms to stay. This event made such a meaningful difference.

The moms got haircuts, manicures, clothing, purses, jewelry, makeup and special gifts. We had a wonderful catered meal for everything. We also heard a moving message of hope from the Pastor.

All our kids had an Easter Egg Hunt. We also had a baptism service for those who wanted to get baptized.

Thanks to Pastor Matt and all the volunteers at Cross Creek Church, Colleyville. You are a tremendous blessing to us and to the families we serve. As I went around to each table, so many people shared their gratitude and how much they appreciated being part of such a special event with their families. They see Jesus in you—and that is what matters most. You made them feel special.

I truly believe what we do for others will never be forgotten. What a beautiful day it was. We love you all and are so very grateful for your love and support of our women and kids!

Sincerely,
Brenda Jackson

Special thanks to for hosting our Day to Shine event today. Everything was absolutely perfect, and all of our mothers and children had an amazing time.

Pastor Lee and Julia went above and beyond to make everyone feel loved and special. The moms received manicures, haircuts, facials, clothes, purses, makeup bags, jewelry, and coats. It is not often that so many of our moms come up to us and say thank you, and today they did. It is so important to show them that we love them—and that Jesus loves them too.

The food was plentiful and delicious… and the desserts—don’t even get me started! They were incredible.

Even with the pouring rain, our moms and children were blessed beyond measure. We were also honored to hear a special testimony from Autum Rae. Wow—she is an amazing woman with such a heart for people.

To say we are blessed is simply not enough. Bear Valley welcomed us with open arms and truly showed us the love of Jesus today.
So to all the volunteers, cooks, and helpers—we thank you for showing love to “the least of these” and their children.
We love you all.

With gratitude,
Brenda Jackson

Special thanks to !

We have received all the food needed for our side dish boxes to go with our frozen turkeys. Because of your generosity, we will be able to feed over 200 moms and kids this Thanksgiving.

With the current food shortages—and many families not receiving food stamps right now—your support is truly a huge blessing. Your kindness directly impacts the mothers and children we serve, and we are so grateful.
