Family Promise of Southern Chester County Creating a self-sustainable livelihood for children and families experiencing homelessness in SCC

When confronted with almost 500 children in Southern Chester County who have experienced homelessness (as documented by the Dept of Education, 2013-14), a concerned group of citizens was compelled to respond. After multiple meetings with community leaders, non-profit organizations, and clergy leaders/representatives, Family Promise, a national organization, was vetted to be the best model for our community to respond to this need. We began operations on Nov. 1, 2015 and have been actively serving families who are experiencing homelessness ever since.

We had a wonderful time attending the CCRES Open House last night!

It was a great evening filled with connection, community, and fall fun! We enjoyed the opportunity to explore CCRES’s new space, connect with their team and fellow community partners, and learn more about their mission and the meaningful work they do throughout our community.

We’re grateful for opportunities like these that bring organizations together, strengthen partnerships, and remind us of the power of community collaboration.

Thank you, CCRES, for the warm welcome and for opening your doors! 💙

Community partnerships make such a difference!

We’re lucky to have Nicole as our wonderful social work intern and we love that she’s also part of the team at Opus. Thank you to Opus for partnering with us and giving back to help families in our community! ❤️

Delicious food, great cocktails, AND a little art on the side. 🎨🍸

Opus brings together a menu rooted in the Brandywine Valley, an inventive cocktail menu, and an art-filled space in the heart of Kennett Square.

Neighbors helping neighbors. That’s what community is all about!

Our friends at Colibrí Community Center, formerly Mighty Writers, are getting settled into their next chapter, and we’d love to help them along the way. They do such important work throughout our community, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to support them in return.

As The Beatles said, “I get by with a little help from my friends,” and we believe that’s true of our community, too! Colibrí has shared a wish list of needed supplies, and if you’re interested in donating, send us a message so we can help coordinate with their team.

A helping hand can go a long way!
