CommunitySupport

13 years. 💛
13 years of showing up.
13 years of spreading hope, love, and support across our community.

What started as a vision has grown into a movement—serving thousands of families and reminding people they are seen, valued, and cared for.

And while we celebrate our birthday… we’re really celebrating impact.

If you believe in what we do, join us in continuing the mission:
✨ Donate $13 a week
✨ Or $26 a month

Because when a community comes together, real change happens.

Let’s keep spreading love—together. 💫

Carter’s House will be closed during Spring Break from March 16–20. We hope everyone enjoys a safe and relaxing break with family and friends.

We will reopen on Monday, March 23, and look forward to continuing to serve and support our community.

Y'all know I'm super dedicated to providing a safe place for folks to heal from their trauma, and God sent me some friends who feel the same way. We are getting ready for the first in-person Triumph Over Trauma Group, and I want to extend a personal invitation to you to join us.

TOT will be held on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm at the Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center in Sunny South Dallas in the Miles of Freedom office. This is not a therapy group, but it is a place to gain new coping skills so that when life gets hard, you can process your feelings and make solid decisions.

You are welcome here. The link is in my bio.

Shoot me a DM if you have any questions.
