Subject: 🚪 The door is open, come on in! 🏠

Hello Friend,

It's the final stretch of 2023! We are sure that you, like us, are busy with holiday activities, in addition to your already full day-to-day life!

Here at Family Promise of Butler County "business" does not take a break for the holidays. The need in Butler County has never been greater for FPBC services and the demand is only increasing during these uncertain times. At last count, we have worked with 42 families this year to provide support as they navigate through the many roadblocks to having and sustaining stable housing. (Read one family's story below.)

As 2023 comes to a close, we hope that you will consider making one last charitable gift and help us continue our work to meet our vision of "Creating a community where every family has a home and a future of promise." You can donate online by clicking on the button above, text opendoorshope23 to 76278, or monetary gifts may be sent by check to FPBC, PO Box 95, Hamilton, OH 45012.

Recently we had a family come through Family Promise of Butler County whose head of household had an 11th-grade education with $65 dollars in the bank. After spending 30 days in our program, she was equipped with a list of resources throughout the county and worked with our Shelter Manager to define a budget that would work for her family. Our congregations loved her and her family well through hosting, feeding, and even providing gas cards. While still here, she found a new job in the culinary industry where she received two promotions in two months. Now she makes $12 more per hour than her former job at a drive-thru, is working on getting her HiSET, housing her family in a small apartment and saving for a better vehicle. Because of the budgeting skills obtained while at FPBC, she is saving almost 40% of her take-home pay to better the life for her and her family. Thank you to all who played a part in changing the story of this family. Because of her time with FPBC, and the great love she was shown by our host congregations, she is a living success story.

Whether you donated to, volunteered at, advocated for, or attended an FPBC event, you HAVE made an impact in the lives of these Butler County families and we are so grateful to you!

As the year comes to an end, and you consider the many options you have for that last donation of 2023, we hope you will consider Family Promise of Butler County and help us provide local children with a home for the holidays and beyond. Monetary gifts may be sent by check to PO Box 95, Hamilton, OH 45011, you can donate online by clicking the button below, or you can text opendoorshope23 to 76278.

Once again, THANK YOU! Together we can continue the efforts to eradicate family homelessness right here in our community because every child truly does deserve a place to call home.

Sincerely,

The Staff & Board of Directors of Family Promise of Butler County
