Taylor has been given a second chance at life thanks to the Salvation Army. A single mother of two children, Taylor has been able to turn her life around not only for herself, but for her two boys as well. After struggling to raise her first child on her own, Taylor moved into the Salvation Army Savannah shelter. By doing so, her life changed forever.
While living in the shelter with her only son at the time, the Salvation Army helped Taylor find a job so that she could get back on her feet. Taylor did not take the opportunity lightly. She worked hard and learned how to properly save her money. In no time she was able to move out of the shelter and into a place of her own.
Having her second child has not slowed Taylor down. She is still working, saving money, and doing everything she can to provide a good life for herself and her children. Taylor credits the Salvation Army Pathway of Hope mission for being there for her when no one else was willing to, and for teaching her important skills like time and money management. Taylor thanks the Salvation Army for not only helping her, but actually caring about her, and people like her, as well.
The Salvation Army and the Empty Stocking Fund helps families like Taylor's during the Christmas season.
