“The joy that it brings these families is priceless. It's not just things, but brings dignity and a measure of stability for them. They no longer feel "less than" but "just like" other families. What a gift!”

"I have volunteered with Welcoming Home a few times over the past few months. The cause is great, the people are wonderful and the feeling of knowing that you have helped a family take a major step forward in their lives and the lives of the kids is immediate. The volunteers and donors are helping out local families at a time of need that will affect their lives in so many positive ways- that’s what keeps me coming back to do it again and again."
“You cannot imagine how happy you and your team made Esmeralda and her children. Esmeralda came to my office Monday morning to show me the pictures and to tell me how happy and grateful she and her children are for all the furniture and the little details that your team did to make her place a real home.”
