Michelle Airhart and DeeDee Jones, Executive Director of Alongside Ministries, ask our listeners to help them care for single mothers, and pregnant women faced with raising a child alone. For more information go to www.alongsideabq.com or call 505-750-7871.  Alongside Ministries provide diapers and wipes (value of over $500 per year), miscellaneous baby items, and baby clothing as they receive donations.  The ministry helps mothers move into apartments which has included furniture and household items. This is important because many of these mothers often have nothing, they are coming out of homelessness. We place mentors with our mothers to help them connect with positive role models. These mentorships often turn into friendships and family.
