I wanted my son to have the same chances in life as other kids. JFCS made it possible.
When a child isn’t off to a good start his future is at risk—and puts stress on the entire family. Sheryl found herself in serious trouble when her son got dropped from preschool for starting fights and disobeying teachers.
“I couldn’t find another preschool for Ben and had to take a lot of unpaid time off work. I was behind on rent and started running out of money for food. The stress was overwhelming but I knew we could both do better, if we could just get some help.”
You can help single moms like Sheryl by making a donation to Jewish Family and Children’s Services today. Our donor-supported programs helped Sheryl cover her rent and put food on her table. Ben received expert therapy so that he could learn to manage his emotions better in school. In time, Sheryl found a school that could support Ben’s special needs.
Your donation gives kids like Ben a chance to succeed and keeps families stable in times of crisis.
