How Donations Help Transform Lives Through FaithWalkers  

Every day, people make quiet choices that can change a life. A word of encouragement. A helping hand. A gift of time or resources when someone needs it most. Generosity isn’t limited to a season or a special day—it’s a daily opportunity to make an impact.

At FaithWalkers, generosity fuels everything we do. It’s what allows us to walk alongside individuals rebuilding their lives after incarceration, support families finding hope again, and create pathways toward lasting change. Every act of giving—whether big or small—becomes part of a larger story of restoration.

This work isn’t about a moment on the calendar. It’s about showing up consistently, believing in transformation, and investing in people long after the spotlight fades. Because when generosity becomes a way of life, lives truly begin to change.

Because when someone gives, we don’t just receive a donation—
we receive a chance to change someone’s story.

FaithWalkers is on the ground with one of the most overlooked populations in our community:
men and women returning home from incarceration.

The world tells them, “Good luck.”
FaithWalkers tells them, “You’re not alone.”

But this kind of support doesn’t happen by accident. It takes resources, people, and tools. Giving Tuesday is one of the few times each year when the community rallies to push this mission forward in ways that can be felt immediately.

Here’s how your donations make a direct, tangible difference:

1. Providing Immediate Support for Returning Citizens

When someone comes home from prison, they often return with:

• No job
• No money
• No transportation
• No support
• No plan

FaithWalkers steps in with essentials—food, clothing, hygiene items, transportation support, and emergency needs.
Giving Tuesday donations ensure that nobody’s first night home feels like their worst night.

2. Funding Life-Changing Programs & Mentorship

Transformation doesn’t happen by chance; it happens through:

• One-on-one mentorship
• Re-entry support
• Faith-based guidance
• Job readiness training
• Accountability groups
• Community service opportunities

Your support strengthens these programs so we can walk with more individuals—not just through release, but through restoration.

3. Strengthening Families Impacted by Incarceration

When one person is incarcerated, the whole family feels the ripple.
When one person is restored, the whole household rises with them.

Donations help FaithWalkers provide family support, counseling connections, and community resources that rebuild what prison tried to break.

Because healed people heal people.
Restored people restore families.
Supported people support their children.

4. Expanding Volunteer & Community Outreach

FaithWalkers is growing—fast.

More people reaching out.
More families asking for hope.
More returning citizens needing guidance.

Your support allows us to train, organize, and equip volunteers who serve on the front lines. Every hour they pour into the mission multiplies the impact of every dollar given.

5. Breaking the Cycle of Recidivism

The statistics say many formerly incarcerated individuals return to prison within three years.

FaithWalkers says:
“Not on our watch.”

Your support goes directly toward helping individuals avoid the traps, triggers, and temptations that lead back to incarceration. You’re not just giving money.
You’re giving someone a fighting chance to rewrite their future.

Your Donation Matters More Than You Know

When you give to FaithWalkers, you’re not giving to an organization—you’re giving through it.

You’re helping:

• A father come home to his kids
• A mother rebuild her confidence
• A young adult find their purpose
• A family breathe again
• A community grow stronger

One changed life can change a family.
One changed family can change a community.
One changed community can change generations.

Your donation is the spark.
Transformation is the fire.

Your Gift Has Power

Whether it’s $10, $50, $100, or more, your generosity becomes part of someone’s comeback story.

If you’ve ever believed in second chances…
If you’ve ever wanted to change a life…
If you’ve ever felt called to stand for something bigger than yourself…

This is your moment. Please give TODAY.
