Empowering Women and Children, Creating Safe Futures

At Magdalena House, we are dedicated to providing refuge and
support for women and children escaping violence and trafficking. During the
Big Give 2025, your support can help us continue to offer a safe, nurturing
environment where individuals can heal and rebuild their lives.

 

Expanding Our Reach

Your generous donations will directly impact our ability to
provide critical services, including emergency housing, counseling, job
training, and legal support. Last year, we supported many families in their
journey towards independence and safety. Your contribution helps us extend
these services to even more individuals in need.

 

Creating Lasting Change

By supporting our campaign, you ensure that Magdalena House
remains a beacon of hope and support for those escaping violence and
trafficking. Your donation plays a crucial role in creating lasting change and
providing a brighter future for women and children in our community.

serves mothers and their children who have fled dangerous and abusive lives by
providing transformation through education, nurturing community, and
programming.

in our community. 

Who We Are

Magdalena House is a long-term transitional home that serves mothers and their children who have fled dangerous and abusive lives by providing transformation through education, nurturing community, and programming. We provide hope and cultivate lasting change in mothers and their children.

Our Program
We offer 24/7 support to create a home-like environment, full of hope and accountability, for these families. Children have a stable home so they can succeed in school.

Moms must participate in full-time accredited education such as ESL, GED, or college. Families participate in parental coaching, life enrichment classes, and counseling. Families stay with us for multiple years until they have completed their educational goals. Moms completing our program are able to earn a living wage and are confident in themselves and their parenting.

Our Neighborhood
We have built a gated neighborhood on our 5-acre property for our mothers and their children with 3 homes, a Family Wellness Center, playground, and community garden. Our plans are to build 4 more homes to support 28 families at a time.
