Healer
$10,000/yr
Provide a child with access to life-saving therapy at our Centers.
Every child deserves to grow up healthy and happy, but this is often harder than it seems for those who have been abused. The path to healing can be rocky at first, but ultimately it opens a clearer and brighter future for the child. We believe in this so strongly that we offer no-cost trauma therapy to the children who enter our center. In many cases, this therapy is life-saving for the child and their families. Your annual membership provides 10 hours of therapy a month to a child and starts them on the path to healing.

Help a Domestic Violence victim and their children relocate to a safe harbor house.

$5,000/yr
Help a Domestic Violence victim and their children relocate to a safe harbor house.
Due to the nature of our work, we see many Domestic Violence victims and their children come through our doors. Many are broken and in desperate need of help, with us being their last chance to get to safety. Our first priority is always making sure that they have a safe place to stay and access to the resources they need until they can be moved out of the area or connected with community partners. This process involves us providing hotel accommodations, pre-paid cell phones/minutes, backpacks, the ability to purchase birth certificates, and access to transportation. Your annual membership ensures that every DV victim and their children that we see will have peace of mind as they are taken care of and relocated to a safe place.

Caretaker
$2,500/yr
Help a mother and her child stay together and out of foster care.
Sometimes the saddest situations we face are the ones that are entirely preventable. A mother losing her child to foster care because she cannot afford diapers is heartbreaking to see and even more so when you know it can be prevented with a little help from a stranger. That is why we go above and beyond to provide these mothers with essential items like diapers, wipes, diaper bags, bottles, formula, bedding, car seats, and Pack N’ Plays so they and their children won’t be separated. Your annual membership helps ensure that every mother and child who walk through our doors can return home safely with the best care possible.

Guardian
$250/mo
Every month help us give a helping hand to a child-abuse victim and their family.

$250/mo
Every month help us give a helping hand to a child-abuse victim and their family.
Many times in child-abuse cases, the victim is removed from the dangerous situation and placed in the care of their non-offending caregivers. Due to socio-economic situations, these caregivers do not often have the immediate resources to take care of the child. To help offset this cost, we keep a supply of gift cards on hand to help the family purchase food and clothing for the child and gas so they can be transported to their therapy sessions at the center. Your monthly membership ensures that we maintain a steady supply of these gift cards so every child’s needs are covered.

Protector
$100/mo
Every month ensure a child has access to clean clothes and a clean home.
One of the worst things that can happen to a child-abuse victim is being unnecessarily removed from their home and taken from their non-offending family due to entirely preventable circumstances. We often we cases where a family is unable to provide a clean home and clothing, not due to neglect but due to a lack of financial resources. To prevent this from happening, we provide access to items such as laundry soap, dry sheets, bleach, cleaning supplies, dishwashing soap, and quarters to use at laundry mats for families that need it. Your monthly membership ensures we can keep our centers stocked with these essential items for the health of our children and their families.

Every month ensure children in our area are educated in Child Safety Matters curriculum.
Often times the best person to keep children safe is themselves. When children are educated in spotting red flags, understanding who are Safe Adults and what is appropriate behavior between adults and children, this gives them the tools they need to keep themselves safe in dangerous situations. Our Prevention team is out in Okaloosa and Walton County schools every year, teaching students these important tools. Your monthly membership ensures that at least 25 students receive monthly Child Safety Matters education.

Friend of the Center
$25/mo
Every month feed the need at both of our centers.
Every child, family, and agency partner has full access to our kitchen, which is stocked full of snacks, drinks, and freshly baked cookies. They are often at the center for hours for services, so having our kitchen full of refreshments is very important. Your monthly memberships help us keep our pantry full by replenishing our stock of child-friendly snacks, drinks, and cookies.
