Two women smile at each other over mugs of coffee at a wooden table, with shelves of plants and jars in the background.

There are moments in life that change the way you see the world.For me, those moments began with my own daughter.Walking beside her through addiction, homelessness, and unimaginable loss opened my eyes to a reality I had never fully understood. Through her journey, I met other women, mothers, fathers, grandparents, and children quietly carrying impossible burdens.I realized my daughter was not alone.She was one of many.Then one afternoon, while sharing lunch with my daughter in Victoria Square, she looked at me and quietly said,&quot;Usually I watch other people live... today, they watch me live.&quot;Those words have never left me.In that moment, she invited me into a world I could never have understood from the outside&mdash;a world where people can feel invisible, where life continues all around them, yet they no longer feel part of it.That conversation became part of the vision for We Are Their Mothers.My daughter is one of many women whose stories have shaped this journey. Today, our mission reaches beyond our own family. We exist to walk alongside women who are rebuilding their lives, offering mentoring, practical support, life skills, and a community that believes in their future.Through our community restoration shop, women will have opportunities to restore donated furniture and household treasures while developing practical skills, rebuilding confidence, and discovering the dignity that comes from meaningful work.Every restored piece helps restore a life.The proceeds from the shop will help sustain mentoring, family support, and programs that strengthen women and families facing crisis especially homelessness.We are currently raising $5,000 to prepare our space, purchase essential supplies, and open our doors.How You Can Help&bull; Donate to help us launch this work.&bull; Share our campaign with your family, friends, and community.&bull; Join a movement that believes every woman deserves to be seen, encouraged, and given a hand up&mdash;not just a handout.Your generosity is helping create more than a restoration shop.You are helping build a community where women find belonging, practical skills, meaningful relationships, renewed confidence, and hope for the future.We Are Their Mothers.We hold hope for them until they are strong enough to hold hope for themselves.
