Break the shackles of poverty!

Tax deductible
Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit Shackle Free Community Outreach Agency Inc, and any donation will help make an impact.

More information about Shackle Free Community Outreach Agency Inc:
Mission: To promote self-reliance by addressing all barriers that hinder the holistic well-being (mind, body, spirit) of individuals and families. Our purpose is to educate, inspire, advocate, consult, counsel, and increase awareness in historically marginalized, rural, communities of color, and beyond in support of a better way of life.

Shackle Free relies on private donations to support operations costs that are not covered by grant funding. Currently, Shackle Free is administering grants that relate to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, these funds do not address the underlying issues of poverty that enter our Warsaw (Duplin County) headquarters daily, nor those that present themselves at the monthly events we host in rural, disparaged communities within Duplin, Onslow, and surrounding counties. It does not fully address the shackles of food scarcity, teen pregnancy, juvenile crime, family unification, joblessness, high utilities, substance abuse, felon re-entry, or the other shackles that create an atmosphere of disdain and hopelessness that is currently riddling our communities.

Lastly, but equally important, grant-seeking entities are required to and should have a sustainability plan to ensure that services can financially continue when grant cycles end. We don't want anyone to leave the same way they came. We give a hand up, not a hand out. Change comes with change. We are the trusted messengers in our communities!

Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to the safety and well-being of our homes and the places we live, work, and play.

Please remember..."Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward them for what they have done." - Proverbs 19:17
