We believe that Be Able is the best investment you will make all year. On Grow Green Match Day, not only will your generosity be matched at 50%, but every dollar you donate will be invested into the lives of your neighbors where the return can be exponential.
Take Maggie (pictured) for example. Early in 2022, she came to Be Able at the lowest point in her life. Through the support and love of the Be Able community, she found the strength to continue. Just over a year ago, Lawrence drove her to addiction treatment in Salina and she bravely took the first step into her new life. In March, Maggie came to visit her Be Able family to share her victory of ONE YEAR OF SOBRIETY. She now gives every person she meets hope and encouragement through her infectious laugh and smile. When asked to share her experience, she reiterated many times: “I wouldn’t be here today without Be Able.”
“Whose responsibility is it, to help our neighbors?”
In the thick of the pandemic of 2020, Be Able opened it’s doors for the first time, as most other organizations were closing them. We’ve created a place where we engage with those in adversity by creating connections, cultivating skills, and opening doors of opportunity. Our community has embraced the magic of Be Able. To join us at changing our community, one life at a time, VOLUNTEER or DONATE to our cause!
