I am a single mom of 4 with a vision for giving back to my community. Having struggled with food in the past, we visited our local food pantries when needed, and what I found was a gap that needs to be filled. I would like to bridge that gap. The one thing that is not available is non-food items. Things like shampoo, soap, toiletries, laundry detergent, dish detergent, clothes for job interviews, and anything else that would be necessary. That is my life dream, to open a Non-Food Pantry to help those in need. Crates of Hope is the name I envisioned. I need a little help seeing this vision through!

I have survived some really tough times in my life, abuse on both a physical and emotional level, facing eviction and homelessness, addiction, and so much more. My story has made me into the person I am today, and the mom I have become. I would love nothing more than to use my strength in a positive way, giving back !

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and any help, advice, leads, links, whatever, you can give me would be very welcomed! Every little act helps, even advice for my situation.

If you feel led to help get this project off the ground and running, anything donated here http://www.givesendgo.com/GKR1 will all go towards this project!

Thank You and have a Blessed Day
