Summer break is almost over and for many students that means a potentially stressful school year lies ahead, but counselors say extracurricular activities can help students cope.Good news to start your week: After overcoming many barriers to employment, a Saint Louise House mom started work last week. A note from her after the first day said, "I love y'all for helping me get through this!" For those of you new to Texas, y'all here means YOU, our community of support.
A little more about Saint Louise House: In an effort to keep barriers to entry low, Saint Louise House does not have a minimum income requirement, as long as there is some consistent, verifiable income. This flexibility makes Saint Louise House accessible to a wide range of families. Learn more about our eligibility requirements at: www.saintlouisehouse.org/supportive-housing.
We are so grateful for our partnership with the Women's Fund at the Austin Community Foundation!
Thanks to the generosity of our investors, the Women's Fund awarded a $50,000 grant to Saint Louise House, which will provide pathways out of poverty for at least 150 women and their children.
