Our apolo­gies for the delay in get­ting this posted. Our fear­less leader, aka CP, suf­fered a brain fart last Friday.

The Restora­tion House of East Ten­nessee jour­neys along­side low-income sin­gle mother fam­i­lies through­out Knoxville as they work to achieve the goals and dreams they have for their fam­ily. Through long-term hous­ing, team men­tor­ing, and fam­ily ser­vices, they focus on rela­tion­ships, build­ing a robust sup­port sys­tem around the fam­i­lies by pro­vid­ing a foun­da­tion that helps them become phys­i­cally, emo­tion­ally, socially, spir­i­tu­ally, and finan­cially strong.

The fam­i­lies of The Restora­tion House are work­ing hard over the two years they are with us to change not only their “todays” but their futures as well.

The chil­dren of these fam­i­lies need healthy social out­lets and oppor­tu­ni­ties for recre­ation and play. Your $5 dona­tion will go towards the pur­chase of a new bas­ket­ball goal for the fam­i­lies who live at the Mechan­icsville site. Your dona­tion will be matched 1:1 by a very gen­er­ous sup­porter. Be sure and select Bas­ket­ball Goal under the des­ig­na­tion drop down on the dona­tion form.

If you want to learn more about The Restora­tion House we encour­age you to attend a one-hour A Day in the Life events designed to edu­cate about what it is like to be a sin­gle mother in Knoxville.

Thank you so much for part­ner­ing with The Restora­tion House in mak­ing a dif­fer­ence for sin­gle mother families.

First Fri­day Five is our online giv­ing project that pro­files one local non-profit orga­ni­za­tion each month. Put your $5 to work.
