Your Support Can Change Lives
December 2, 2024
Dear friend of Communitas,
At Communitas, we believe in the power of community to bring about meaningful change in the lives of those returning from being incarcerated. Our mission is to create a space where everyone feels accepted, valued, and supported as they reintegrate into society. But we can’t do it alone—we need your help to continue this important work.
How Your Communitas Donation Helps
- Enabling Hope “19 years ago, I came to Open Door for the first time. I had to adjust to a new world; I came into a society that didn’t accept me. I met a volunteer who came to Open Door, and I experienced a sudden renewal in my self-esteem.”
- Fostering acceptance “For me, Communitas saved my life… I have the support I need, and I’m accepted for who I am now.”
- Building Community “I come here to socialize, for social networking (at Table Talk). It’s kind of a potluck, and everyone is really nice. It’s something different every week, I’m always meeting someone new, it’s nice!”
- Welcoming Environment “The acceptance that the clients needed in their life was accomplished just by them showing up.”
- Transforming Lives “Communitas has shown me that amazing, beautiful change is possible.”
- Building Trust “The truths at the core of Communitas’ work are that everyone is valuable, and everyone deserves support. When I come to Communitas and see everyone coming together and caring for each other, I just know it’s all worth it. I feel inspired to keep showing up for the community, even when it seems difficult.”
Your donation makes a real difference. It helps us provide support and acceptance to those rejoining society, create a welcoming environment for social networking, and offer programs that inspire and help build a safer society. Read more in our annual report.
Please consider making a contribution to Communitas today. Together, we can continue to foster a community where everyone feels they belong and can be productive.
