<div>Help Us Raise the First $50,000 Toward Our Permanent Home

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Every family deserves a safe place to begin again.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>At Our Humble Beginnings: Collective Ministries, we believe that healing starts with stability, support, and community. Our mission is to walk alongside women and families experiencing housing insecurity by connecting them with essential resources, practical assistance, and compassionate care as they work toward long-term self-sufficiency.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Although we’ve already begun serving our community through outreach events and resource distributions, we know our impact can grow so much further with one thing we don’t yet have—a permanent place to call home.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Today, we are asking you to help us raise the first $50,000 toward establishing our future community home.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This space will become more than just a building—it will become a place of refuge, restoration, and new beginnings.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Our long-term vision is to establish a welcoming community center that will also serve as an emergency shelter for women and families experiencing homelessness. We envision a place where individuals don’t just receive temporary assistance, but are surrounded by the support, resources, and encouragement needed to rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Our future home will provide:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>* Emergency shelter for women and families in crisis

</div>

<div>* A welcoming resource center for housing, employment, and community support

</div>

<div>* Case management and connections to essential services

</div>

<div>* Life skills workshops, financial literacy, and educational programming

</div>

<div>* Children’s learning and activity spaces

</div>

<div>* Mental health and wellness programming

</div>

<div>* Meeting space for volunteers, mentors, and community partners

</div>

<div>* Storage and distribution space for food, clothing, hygiene items, and emergency supplies

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Your donation will help us take the first major steps toward making this vision a reality by funding:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>* Building acquisition and down payment savings

</div>

<div>* Property inspections and professional fees

</div>

<div>* Initial renovations and accessibility improvements

</div>

<div>* Furnishings and equipment

</div>

<div>* Licensing, startup, and operational costs needed to open our doors as we work toward becoming a fully operational shelter and resource center

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>No gift is too small.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Whether you give $10, $100, or simply share this campaign with your community, you are helping build something that will serve generations of families throughout Detroit.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We often say that everyone deserves a humble beginning—a chance to start over with love, hope, healing, and a place to call home.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This isn’t simply about purchasing a building. It’s about creating a sanctuary where families can find safety, support, and the opportunity to write a new chapter. Together, we’re laying the foundation for a future where no family has to face homelessness alone.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you for believing in this vision. Thank you for helping us build not just a building, but a lasting home for our community.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With gratitude,

</div>

<div><br />
