At Mustard Seed Shelter, we recognize that financial independence is an essential step toward rebuilding lives. Through the YWCA of the Great Lakes Bay Region Women’s Economic Empowerment Program, our guests participate in their free Moving Ahead and Pathways to Progress workshops, as well as the Staying Ahead program for workshop graduates. The programs equip women and families the tools and knowledge they need to regain control of their finances and create lasting stability.
We are committed to serving women and families experiencing homelessness, financial instability, or crisis. Our goal is to empower them with the knowledge and confidence they need to manage their money effectively and take charge of their future.
With your support, we can continue to offer these vital programs. Whether through donations or volunteering, your involvement helps provide the financial literacy and resources necessary to break the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future.
At Mustard Seed Shelter, every step toward financial independence begins with understanding and support. We’re here to help women and families navigate their financial paths and achieve lasting success.
Our work is made possible by the generous support of individuals, churches, clubs, organizations, and foundations. With 95 cents of every dollar going directly to our life-changing programs, your contributions make a tangible impact.
Our Mission: We water the seed of inner strength in women experiencing homelessness so they can make a better life for themselves and their children.
