Your compassion is their best chance.

We all have a role to play in supporting northern Michigan’s most vulnerable children and families. We welcome anyone or any organization to partner with us as we strive to create communities where people are safe and healthy. Please consider a donation of your time or money in order to offer a hand up to those in our community who need help.
