Sabrina had recently become guardian of her niece and nephew. Her modest income couldn't keep up, and the family was evicted from their apartment. Sabrina turned to Catholic Charities' Samaritan House Family Services Program. Because of generous donors like you, the family was given the chance to rebuild the foundation for long-term success and stability.
