This past Winter, The Mustard Seed Foundation announced that in 2017 would they need to find a new home for their foundation, reaching out to their community of supporters and the city of Dayton to help them raise $60,000 towards a new location. Now being being less than 60 days from needing to vacate their present home and $25,000 left to raise for a down payment, they can see the light at the end of the tunnel but still need help in keeping a roof over their young families’ heads.
The Mustard Seed Foundation addresses the physical, social, and educational needs of teen mothers and their children. Providing a safe, secure and supportive environment clients are able to break through barriers and reduce the percentage of child abuse and neglect cases and multiple unplanned pregnancies. Additionally, their programs assist with completing educational goals which will enable them to become self-sufficient.
