Program areas at Saving Amy
Rise Up: Comprising two vital components, this program offers essential support through rent subsidies, utilities, furniture, and household supplies. Equally important, it empowers families to escape low-income neighborhoods, fostering hope and brighter futures.
Kids Go: In partnership with esteemed institutions such as Brophy College Preparatory and local high schools, we proudly offer year-round mentoring, tutoring, and an engaging summer camp experience for our cherished Saving Amy children. Additionally, one day every weekend is dedicated to enriching activities that expand the horizons of Saving Amys children. We kick off the Saving Amy Bridge and Summer Reading Program in May, enhancing academic skills and preparing them for the upcoming school year. Our tutors/mentors lead a Saving Amy summer camp with engaging activities like ice skating, movies, science museum visits, and picnics.
Rolling Forward: Accessible and reliable transportation is key to overcoming homelessness. Our transportation program leverages donated vehicles, Lyft credits, and Uber rides to ensure that individuals can readily access employment, educational opportunities, medical appointments, and extracurricular activities, promoting independence and stability. Additionally, Saving Amy has established partnerships with the Arizona Humane Society, allowing us to acquire vehicles at significantly discounted rates.
Empowerment Through Therapy: Through this program, we offer trauma therapy for adults and children, conducted by licensed trauma therapists who bring expertise across the Valley. Each of our families receives personalized attention tailored to the unique needs and guidance provided by the therapist.
THRIVE: Through our life skills program, we impart critical skills in budgeting, nutrition, career development, parenting, and meditation. These abilities empower individuals to flourish in every facet of their lives.
