Dove Fund
Household stability is the first step
.We look for families who are poised to make a pivot, for better or for worse.
Dove Fund assists clients who are actively reaching for a better way of life. Our typical client is a single working mom with several young children. We dial in our time, money, and networking prowess to help motivated clients with a little extra support so that they can get up on their feet and reclaim their forward momentum.
For example, $1,500 to keep a family from being evicted has more impact than $1,500 to pay a month's rent for someone who will immediately get behind again. We help those with a viable plan for moving forward. We offer the helping hand that will get them over the final hurdles.
Recently, a single mom of three in Hollywood faced imminent eviction. She had a steady office job, but an unexpected illness and resultant surgery had kept her homebound for months. Despite having recovered and returned to work, the mom lacked the earning power to pay her debt. Dove Fund kept them from being turned out on the street.
Sometimes a pivot is an upward movement. Another client had a chance to become a first-time homeowner in North Charleston. Dove Fund helped cover several mortgage payments to give her a cushion so that she could purchase furniture and cover moving expenses for her new home.
Each project is unique, and we welcome gifts of any size. All donations to Dove Fund are tax-deductible, as we are a 501 (c) (3) organization.
We trust that God's ways are higher than our ways and we look to him with expectation to bring about what is best within his perfect wisdom.
Dove Fund does not provide emergency assistance or fast turn-around solutions.
I am thanking God for the Dove Fund. If I didn't meet you all, I am not sure that I would be standing in my new apartment right now. Your organization is full of angels.
J.P. of Charleston had been living in her car for nine months after becoming homeless. Dove Fund helped J.P. pay bills in order to move into an affordable apartment.
