April Pew Envelopes Support Family Promise of Burlington County
Family Promise of Burlington County provides assistance to families with minor children to help prevent homelessness in our community. When necessary, in emergency situations, families are sheltered in nearby hotels. But the Family Promise goal is not simply to house families, it is to keep them in stable housing and prevent homelessness.
Currently they are working with 25 families providing rental assistance, landlord mediation and counseling to get them through rough times so they can stay in their homes. Some families are placed into transitional housing like Trinity’s property on 2nd Street. Stability in a safe environment, along with consistent case management, enables these families to move on to permanent housing usually within 6 months.
Please help Family Promise continue their ministry. Being homeless devastates families and can alter a child’s life. This month we have an opportunity to come together to make our donations to Family Promise even stronger! By donating now through Easter Sunday, 4/20, your donation will be MATCHED by a special grant for Family Promise!
Donations can be dropped off, mailed to the office or made using the QR code. Please designate for “Family Promise ”
Thank you for your support of Trinity’s Community Outreach.
