Village Roots

June is National Reunification Month.

When children enter foster care, the hope is often that their family can safely come back together.

That kind of healing takes time. It takes parents doing hard work, and it takes a community willing to support them as they rebuild.

At Village Roots, we believe families deserve help before things reach a breaking point. When parents have support around them, children have a better chance to stay safely connected to the people who love them most.

This month is a reminder that reunification is about more than returning home. It’s about helping families become safe enough and strong enough to move forward together.

Families don’t heal in isolation. They heal in community.

As we head into Friday's Golf Tournament, we want to recognize the three businesses that stepped up as our Fairway Sponsors.

Thank you to Broadmoor, Element Wellness, and Ronco Construction Company for investing in Village Roots and the families we serve.

As a small nonprofit, events like this simply don't happen without community partners who believe that families deserve a village around them during difficult seasons.

Your generosity helps us continue walking alongside families experiencing housing instability and crisis as they work toward a stronger future.

Please join us in thanking these incredible community partners for helping make Friday's tournament possible. 💚

We had a great time connecting with Teri from Omaha 100 Inc! We learned so much about the incredible resources they offer to help families achieve financial stability and pursue homeownership. We love building connections with community partners who help us better support the families we serve, and we're excited about what this partnership could mean for families working toward lasting stability.

We’re just one week away from the Village Roots Golf Tournament, and we still have room for more golfers on the course. ⛳

If you’ve been thinking about joining us, today is a great day to register so we can finalize teams and plans!

Every golfer helps us move toward our $15,000 goal to support one local family working toward safe housing, stability, and a stronger future together.

No team? No problem. Individual golfers can register for $150 and we’ll place you with a group.

Your registration includes 18 holes of golf, cart, breakfast, lunch, drink ticket, raffle ticket, and a great day supporting local families.

Gather a team, register solo, or send this to someone who would love a Friday on the course for a good cause.

A big thank you to D, also known as Chief, for an incredibly generous donation of baby and toddler clothes, toys, a pack n play, and bouncer.

Her military family is preparing for a move, and she wanted these items to go to local families who could truly use them.

Some of the items already went to one of our families this morning, and the mom was so thankful to receive such nice things.

We’re so grateful for the way our community continues to show up for families!

You don’t need a foursome to golf for a good cause. After a few requests, we just opened up individual golfer registration for the Village Roots Golf Tournament!

So if you want to golf but don’t have a full team, you can still register and we’ll place you with a group.

Your $150 registration includes golf, breakfast & lunch, raffle ticket, drink ticket, and a fun day supporting local families working toward stability

Our golf tournament is June 5 at Pacific Springs, and we still have room for golfers and sponsors.

And this year, the day feels especially meaningful. We have three families moving from mentor homes into stable housing this month, and this tournament helps make that kind of support possible for more families.

Village Roots Core Value: Built on Trust

Trust isn’t built overnight. It grows through consistency, honesty, and showing up again and again.

At Village Roots, we work hard to create relationships where families feel safe, respected, and supported. The same is true for our staff, mentors, and community partners.

Because trust is the foundation everything else is built on.

Calling all serious golfers, casual golfers, snack golfers, cart drivers, raffle prize enthusiasts, and people who just like a good excuse to spend a Friday in the sun.

Our 4th Annual Golf Tournament is 3 weeks away, and we still have spots open for teams and sponsors.

Your day includes breakfast, lunch, a drink ticket, great raffle prizes, and the warm fuzzy feeling of knowing your golf outing is helping local families stay together.

No professional golf skills required. Honestly, a good attitude and a willingness to yell “fore” might be enough!

Today, a mom in our IFC program signed the lease to her own home.

Earlier this year, she had a baby. Soon after, her toddler was able to move into the IFC home with her so they could begin rebuilding as a family. With housing, support, mentoring, and a safe place to land, she kept taking the next step.

And today, she has keys to a home of her own.

This is what your support makes possible. Families staying together. Parents getting back on their feet. Children sleeping under the same roof as their mom.

Some moms spent this year fighting to get their kids back.
Some spent this year learning how to heal.
Some spent this year trying to create stability for the first time in a long time.
And some are finally celebrating Mother’s Day together again.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers, from Village Roots. 💐
