“No beauty shines brighter than that of a good heart.”
This simple quote sits at the top of a handwritten card one of our Focus Pearl moms recently gave to Kay, our Client Engagement Manager. It’s a fitting introduction to the heartfelt note she wrote underneath:
“I am so incredibly grateful for you Kay (and the board) for giving me the honor of being a Focus Pearl. You bless this group with your kindness, genuine care, compassion, and the biggest heart ever… Your generosity and support has helped me more than you know, and I’m so grateful to be part of this group. Your help has made a huge difference in me and my daughters’ lives. I look forward to learning and growing in this group. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”— A Pearl Promise Mom
This handwritten message isn’t a dramatic story — it’s a moment. A moment of encouragement. A moment of gratitude. A moment where a single parent felt supported, valued, and uplifted.
Why Colorado Gives Day donations matter for single parent success.
Your generosity provides the environment where parents can grow in confidence, find community, and experience emotional and practical support. Your giving strengthens single parents and creates greater stability for their children. Your kindness helps us continue our mission of changing single parent families — one family at a time.
As Colorado Gives Day begins tomorrow, we want our donors and supporters to see the impact they help make possible. This card is simply one expression of the gratitude our parents feel. And it reflects the care, consistency, and compassion that your support helps us extend to every family we serve.
