Adopt a Room Fundraiser
With homelessness becoming a nationwide epidemic, we strive to provide a safe and healing living environment for young mothers and their babies. We do this by providing dormitory style living with a common laundry and recreational room for mothers ages 12 to 20 and their children. We currently have the capacity to house 5 mothers and 10 children with plans in the near future to increase our capacity to 10 mothers and up to 20 children.
Our moms and babies are provided with supervision and care by house parents in the evening and overnight. We also provide activities, educational programs and transportation for the mothers after school. With school beginning in one month, our rooms are cleaned, inspected and ready for new beds, cribs and other necessities to welcome our 2024-2025 residents.
We need your help! A small contribution can go a long way and mean restful sleep, safety and comfort for young mothers in our community.

My story begins at a crossroads, faced with the challenge of teenage pregnancy amidst personal turmoil. At 16, expecting my daughter Hazel, I was determined to build a future for us. My family life was complicated, as i grew up surrounded by addiction and even experienced foster care. But when I discovered I was pregnant, I knew I wanted to keep my baby and make a change.
I found a beacon of hope at St. Gerard Campus. From the moment I stepped in for my intake, they welcomed me with open arms and warmth. They didn’t just see a teenage girl in a tough spot; they saw potential and strength. Their kindness was palpable, and the first gift they gave me for Hazel, a soft yellow blanket, became a cherished symbol of a new beginning.
St. Gerard wasn’t just a pregnancy resource center; it was my safe haven and my school. With their support, I channeled my determination into my studies, graduating as valedictorian two years early, while eight months pregnant. This achievement wasn’t just for me—it was for Hazel, ensuring I could give her my undivided attention when she arrived and setting us on a path to success.
Life continued to blossom from there. I married my childhood friend, Dylan, and we recently celebrated the arrival of our second joy, Theo, born at home. I’m now pursuing my passion as a midwifery student, inspired by my journey and the care I received.
As Hazel steps into kindergarten, I reflect on how far we’ve come. St. Gerard Campus was more than a resource; it was the foundation of our family’s story, and for that, I am eternally grateful.
