Our Focus Is On Helping Single Moms and Their Children
Approximately 26 percent of U.S. children under the age of 18 live in a single-parent home. In the U.S., it is likely that the frequency of one-parent families, at least as a transitional family stage in the life course, will increase or remain high. These families are highly vunerable, since most are headed by women, whose social position is still relatively weaker than that of men. These women have to cope with the existing incompatabilities between gainful employment and family life, especially child care.
The Family Relief Foundation began with a desire to help raise money for other organizations who are out there doing good for people. Our mission is to raise funds for those organizations, so that they may continue their efforts for many years to come.
Some of the organizations we've helped so far include:
-
Habitat For Humanity
-
Vanderbilt Children's Hospital
-
Nashville Rescue Mission
-
Tornado Relief - Murfreesboro, TN
