You keyed in hundreds of gifts; you called them in, mailed them in, and walked them through our front door. You posted photos online and shared some beautiful stories about family. You broadcast your gratitude to the world, and you pushed Pay It Forward past our $150,000 goal.
You are our heroes. And while Oct. 20 was a great day – we loved every minute of it – the best part will be seeing the lives you change through your gifts.
Thank you for believing and giving so generously. You are the heart of all we do.

You can’t put a price on childhood security. You could never pay it back in full. But you can pay it forward. Pay forward the blessings in your life with a gift of security for someone else. Do it in honor of your family – the ones you love – and then share with your friends!
Your gift will be matched, dollar for dollar

Our goal is met, and it's only 7 p.m.!
This is amazing – we are humbled by the outpouring of love and care for the children we serve.
We will keep pushing until midnight. There's a $5,000 gift depending on 92 new donors to show up and give, so we're watching that number. If you know somebody who might give, please let them know. Any amount will help.
THANKS & LOVE TO YOU ALL!
581 days ago by Jeannie Faris NorrisWOW. We are overjoyed – your generosity and hard work today has been nothing short of amazing! Thank you, everyone! We're 2/3 of the way to our goal, and we are grateful for each and every gift that has come in today.
Here's one we thought would be fun to share with you. It was a $2,000 gift from the people who grew up on our Raleigh campus – including a few sitting in the bottom row of this 1945 photo. Thank you, MO/MHC Alumni!
How about that?
