Starting Strong

Over the past few years, FPC has built a relationship with Starting Strong.  Starting Strong supports young men and women who have aged out of foster care at age 18 and have no family support.  We sponsor an apartment at Hope Landing by sharing in the rent payment, plus stocking and cleaning the apartment every time a new resident arrives.  Some of our men have moved donated furniture to other apartments where the young adults are starting their independent lives.  We give graduation gift cards every year, too.  As part of our commitment, we have donated $130,000 in 2024-25.  We have pledged to help Starting Strong build an endowment by providing matching funds up to $50,000.  This thank you note is from the director, Yvonne Williams.  This thank you is for you, FPC.  May God continue to bless us to be a blessing.
