Family Forever
I chose to spend my summers with Family Scholar House because I know everything they do has an impact on the people they serve. Every year I get the opportunity to support the community that helped my family break the cycle of poverty.

This process as a whole took a little longer than we had anticipated, and one participant mentioned “This isn’t exactly enjoyable; however neither is the process of healing.”
Full Circle
I am proud to say I was a part of this organization, and I found a confidence I didn’t know existed. The FSH family made me feel special, they continuously acknowledged my success and believed in me more than anyone else ever had.
A true story of grit and determination
Heather makes it very clear that failure was never an option. “The advisor at school asked me what my backup plan was in case I didn’t make it into the nursing program, and I told him that this is my one and only plan. There is no backup plan.”

With 89 single parents and 123 children between their two campuses, there can be a lot of changes in a typical week that make it anything but typical.
