Hello Family Promise Supporters,

We have a significant need that we are looking for help on.  Our newest
guest family is a young mom and dad with a 15-month-old girl.  Dad works
full-time in Brookfield at the Sports Authority near Brookfield Square.
Mom works part-time at Chili's on Bluemound in Brookfield.  We have taken
this family in even though they do not own a vehicle because they are so
close to making it on their own and we are hopeful we can make this work.
We are working on finding them a vehicle.  Until that happens, we are
hoping to find a team of volunteers who would be willing to offer them
rides to and from their jobs.

As you all know, reliable transportation is an absolute necessity to
flourish in Waukesha County.  In our first year of operation, Family
Promise has turned down a number potential guests because of lack of
reliable transportation.  We have our own van, but financial reality limits
use of our van to getting guests to and from the churches and the Day
Center.

*We are now looking to all the good folks in our community to help us set
up a Ride-Share Program.* Do you know anyone who could lend a ride to a
Family Promise guest?  If we got enough volunteers, we could set-up an
on-call schedule and provide rides for our guests when needed.

Please forward this email to anyone you know who might be willing to help.

*Interested persons can call the Family Promise Center at 262-968-2321
<262-968-2321> or call me directly at 414-587-2476 <414-587-2476>.*

Thanks for helping to get the word out!
