💜 Our Community Can Make a Difference!

We are reaching out to our community in hopes of finding a pair of women's size 10 steel-toe boots for a mom who is working hard to build a better future for herself and her family.

She has been actively participating in MEP services and making great progress toward her goals. She is now working toward employment, and having the proper work boots would help her take that next step.

If anyone has a pair of new or gently used women's size 10 steel-toe boots they would be willing to donate, please reach out to us!

Sometimes something as simple as a pair of boots can make a big difference in someone's life. 💜

Please feel free to share!

Reach out to [email protected] to schedule drop off.

💍💕 We have so much to celebrate this month!

Please join us in congratulating our wonderful Erin and her new husband, Scott, on their marriage! We are so excited for them as they begin this beautiful new chapter together. 🥂💐

September is extra special because Erin is also celebrating 3 years with MEP! For the past three years, she has been an important part of our team, and we’re so grateful to have her.

Happy 3-year MEP anniversary, Erin, and congratulations to the newlyweds! Here’s to many happy years ahead! 💕✨

Three children in the Ozarks have a new bed to sleep in tonight.

One family is working toward reunification - getting their children back home.

Another is working to keep their children safely at home and out of foster care.

Different roads. Same need.

Missouri Empowerment Project is walking alongside both families. When they learned these children needed beds, they reached out to us.

Because of this community, we had beds waiting.

In the Ozarks, no family walks alone.
