They tell us they have seen a 47% increase in the number of moms seeking shelter since a year ago, and a 76% increase in the number of children.
They promise to never turn anyone away, and because of this are asking the community for help.

This is a story I immediately went home and showed my boys - young athletes with big dreams.
