Sherral's financial crisis

Donation protected
During my journey to fulfill God’s purpose for my life-the establishment of Miracles Manor-a program for females returning to society after their incarceration, I have found out that I have tumors on my ovary and need surgery.

Since that time, I have not worked in three weeks. Unfortunately, my current position does not allow for any sick leave or monetary compensation yet the bills must be paid. Following my surgery, I will be off work for another six weeks. I need your financial help during my unexpected time of need.  
The following basic information about Miracles Manor will help you understand my plight and my need to get back to what God as assigned me to do.

MIRACLES MANOR

TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAM FOR WOMEN

WHO: Miracles Manor is comprised of caring people dedicated to assisting women in their plight to become productive, independent, successful citizens. We will provide mentoring by other returning citizens (success stories themselves) as well as individuals from society who have never served penal time, but who have had to overcome personal barriers that held them “prisoner”.  Mentors will help the women re-build their lives, live successfully in society, and reduce the recidivism rate.

WHAT:Miracles Manor is a 12-18 month program targeting returning citizens 90-120 days short of their release, females with non-violent charges who will not be on parole supervision.
Miracles Manor’s program will offer such services as:
Mentoring
Anger Management
Counseling
Substance/Alcohol abuse programs
GED tutoring (getting a GED will be mandatory if participant does not have one).
Higher education (if  she desired)
Workshops, webinars and seminars relating to
Budgeting
Parenting
Banking-with an emphasis on savings accounts
Healthy buying and food consumption
Job preparedness i.e. how to dress for certain job and job interviews, completing an online or hard copy job application, and job honesty and integrity
Assistance with affordable health care (Obama Care)
Assistance with getting her social security card, driver’s license, SSI, food stamps, etc. (where applicable).

WHEN:  Early Spring, 2016, is the projected month to open our home for the women who have been selected for the program.

WHERE: Our initial location will be in the area Baton Rouge tentatively, at 800 South 16th Street, 70802. 

WHY:  We understand the challenges and struggles women face re-entering society. Miracles Manor will offer support, encouragement, understanding, and a safe haven where women can concentrate on getting themselves ready and stable enough to deal with the frustrations of life without resorting to criminal acts. Miracles Manor’s concept is renewing the minds of the returning citizen by education them about themselves, their environment, and their abilities and potentials thereby reducing the recidivism rate.
