May is Mother’s Month here at Holy Ground!
Holy Ground is so proud of all our moms for overcoming the challenges they face daily, whether in school, on the job, or at home raising their children. Would you be willing to help us to help them as they transform into stable, self-reliant, healthy and productive young women?
During Mother’s Month, please consider a donation to Holy Ground PBC to help us continue to empower young moms to achieve even more daily victories!
You can donate to our GoFundMe page or via our Donate page.
On behalf of our young moms, we thank you!
Throughout the month we will be spotlighting a few of our young moms’ successes, every one worthy of celebrating. The hard work of changing lives for the better continues every single day here on our campuses, and each one of our brave and determined mothers deserves recognition for her perseverance.
To give you just a taste of some of the transformations happening at Holy Ground:
- One of our new clients is coming out of her shell, thanks to both our caring staff and our innovative ACE (trauma) program. She has also applied to Palm Beach State to study EMT. In addition, she just achieved her driver’s license, a major badge of independence!
- Speaking of driving, another new client has very wisely used her tax refund to purchase a good, used vehicle. No longer dependent on public transportation, she can now get her kids to and from school and make it to her job so much more easily than before. This smart financial decision has sped her along the road to self-reliance.
- One of our residential moms has now achieved her goal of stable housing! This is an accomplishment she had pursued for some time – it’s also our vision for all the young moms in our program. She is now part of our Independent Living/Aftercare program as she works toward her degree in Early Childhood Education.
In June, we will have a ceremony to celebrate a couple of recent academic and vocational achievements by our busy young moms.
Stay tuned for more on these talented moms!

Why we so strongly believe in Holy Ground’s long-term, independent living model:
