My impact story
Sardis Doorway has been life-changing.  When I first came into the program I was in a very bad situation.  I was living with my abusive ex and my children in a worn-down apartment in poverty,
I was depressed everyday. I couldn’t leave my home.  I had no friends and I had no support.
When I started going to Doorway, I was amazed by everything that they did and the support that they gave me ~ counseling and courses like when Love Hurts.
 I was able to find the courage to leave my abusive relationship and move out on my own starting over completely.
I had the support of all the mom’s workers and the volunteers.  I finally had a community I could trust.  I started making friends within the program and all the moms were all there for different reasons and it was a safe place for all of us.
I was able to work on myself and work on healing for my kids. hey gave me the support I needed to start over. They offered parenting classes, there were hampers, they help me move.  They offered counselling and courses.
I would not have been able to do it without them.
With their help I was able to go back to school.  I started the process of looking into what I really wanted and what I wanted my life to be like.  I knew I had to make a change so I started putting in motion what my long-term goals were.  What the best things were for my family.  I started a business certificate and now I am enrolled in Marc Anthony's Academy of Cosmetology for hairdressing.
With their support I found my true calling, I've moved into very nice apartment with my two children and I have the chance to make my kid's life better.
 I am truly blessed to have been a part of Sardis Doorway and I hope to come back in the future as a volunteer to help those moms the same way that they helped me.
 I am forever grateful ~ my kids life and mine has changed for the better thank you everyone at Sardis Doorway.
