Around here each little moment is a precious milestone towards the overall transformation of a family. All throughout the year you have seen the videos, photos, and read the stories. Each one revealing a new lesson learned, a barrier crossed, or a victory achieved. Whether it’s the first smile of a newborn infant, or the smile of a mother on her first day of work at her new job. The little moments matter. It matters that a child is excited to run to the park. It’s amazing to see a mom hold in the air her driver’s license as she walks through the door. What a moment to witness when a little boy who never wanted to be touched, runs up to others with open arms for a hug, squealing the words, “I Love You.”

You see for us here at Acres of Hope, the little moments matter. It is these moments that in time will reveal the progression of how a life that began in a place of homeless, transformed into a life that has broken the cycle. That realization comes the day when an invitation is given to visit a graduate family at their new home. It comes in moments of college graduations or an alumni child inviting you to his next belt placement in martial arts. It comes full circle when a graduate returns to mentor other residents to show them the way out of broken cycles too.

The little moments matter.

On December 3rd #GivingTuesday you can help provide the opportunity for many more moments to happen in the lives of our families at Acres of Hope. One moment from you can make a world of difference for women and children breaking the cycle of homelessness. Won’t you join us in making more little moments matter?
