The REAL Program
We have some exciting news! During this holiday season, we have been given the opportunity to purchase our rental home! It was unexpected and a complete surprise. With this, however come some consequences, good and bad, that we need to sort out. The good news is that we will be able to provide stability that is so vital to continue our growth and success here in our incredible home on Ocean St. This will mean more opportunity in the future for us to help and guide the wonderful children and their families that we work with and support. We can continue to provide books for all the children who need them; increase the time to help the parents with their desire to learn English giving their children a stronger family community tie. It means that we can work more days with the children year round. We will be able to work even more closely with the surrounding high schools and colleges providing a mentor program working with the children on their academics.
Here is the other consequence; the not so good. The time frame for this to happen is very short. We realize that if we can’t make this commitment, it would very difficult times ahead for us. Losing our home means that we may not be able to continue the program as we know it. We will not give up on our program and we are fighting to stay on track. If there is any way that you can help us in this endeavor, we would be  “REALLY “grateful.
