Mission Statement
To assist, inspire, and lend a helping hand to single parents looking to provide their family with a healthy home environment.
Description
At Shirley’s Temple, we will look to provide financial assistance to single parents facing evictions or displacement in the Tampa Bay area. In 2021, Tampa was deemed the number one housing market in the United States. As a result, both home values and rent in the area soared by almost 30% in a year. This has caused a financial strain on a lot of the residents in Tampa Bay. Especially single parent households who already faced difficulties managing their current living situation. As a result, this has added stress and pressure to their households. We believe that having a healthy home environment is essential to the development of the family. It is important that we do whatever it takes to help each single parent that goes through our program maintain or achieve a healthy home environment.
