Seven More Days

I want you to remember this phrase - “seven more days”.

That is the amount of time a particular client had remaining before he would finish the Mission’s Rebound program. As we talked, he shared the challenges he would be facing upon graduation. He wanted our supporters to know that through their kindness and generosity, they had given him the tools he needed so that the streets became a “thing of the past”. I watched pain on his face as he talked about his past and hope come across his face as we finished our conversation.

The gifts of our supporters and their compassion has given him the gift of a brighter tomorrow.
