Transforming Lives
Added 2022-09-08 15:07:14 +0000 UTC
I am happy to announce that we will be donating to the Center for Transforming Lives on a monthly basis starting this month. And when I say "we", all of you are included because without your generous donations to us, we would not be able to do something like this.
The Center for Transforming Lives is dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty and focuses on helping mothers and their children. They provide housing services, childhood education, counseling services, job placement, and more!! I am extremely grateful that we are able to do this in honor of my Mom - Madeline Edward (always loved, always remembered).
Love you all to life Lπ

This episode was great and your commentary was awesome as always! I just watched a Youtube video about the poster's top five BTS reactors. Guess who was No. 1? Y'ALL were!!!! Now that's somebody with good taste! (And Blaze ... is that a UT hat? Hook 'em Horns!)

Hey I feel for you. This is an old post so I'm not sure if many will see your comment. Do you have a paypal for donations?

Dear Nico, dear Fam, I am really ashamed to do this but I'm begging for your help. I've been battling with depression for the past 2+ years and on top of that I can't find any job. I've been looking for a job for the past 3 months without a luck and I'm becoming more and more depressed. I'm not able to pay off my debt of 10.000 PLN (~2.000 USD) and I'm so desperated that I created a fundraise for my own cause. If anyone would like to help me here's a link: https://zrzutka.pl/39m37g It's in Polish but you can autotranslate the page. I'm sorry for asking for help here and thanks to anyone willing to help π

As I became a single mother when my children were still young, I know the struggle and it is all too real. Your mother must be so proud that you have supported such a wonderful cause in her honor, I know I am. Thank you Fam. Much love.

Thank you so much. Causes like these are very dear to me having many single mother households in my family and seeing first hand how difficult it is to raise children with limited resources. Thank you for supporting a great cause. Much love and blessings. π

Wow! Nico, Mika, AJJ, Blaze, and the rest of the Fam, this is wonderful news! You guys are a special bunch and Iβm grateful I found WYG2S when I did, just like how I found BTS when I did! This is a beautiful thing and a great way of giving back! God bless yβall Famππ«°π»

I joined your patreon because you were all entertaining and really liked BTS. I could sense you were genuine and kind, and this proves it further to me. It's always good to give back and your mother would be proud. Love you all, keep going.

Thank you very much, Larenda. This is the perfect solution. I don't want to complicate things or make more work for Nico in particular. I looked at their page and they seem to stand in a gap that is able to provide much needed resources and tools to help navigate the system. Gracias Larenda!

This is absolutely incredible news; I work for exactly this kind of initiative here in the UK, so itβs wonderful to hear that the WatchaFam & ARMY are aligning with this so beautifully πππ

I know Nico truly means you don't need to give more, but if this cause is close to your heart, I think it is a worthy charity.
I did research on this organization at the beginning of the year and they do a lot of great work for mothers and children in Texas and their admin costs are underwritten by some local businesses so 100% of donations from individuals go towards their services.
Here is their donation page. (You can leave a comment about Madeline or Nico so they know how you found them.) Gifts can be made online here: https://transforminglives.org/donate

This is such a beautiful and thoughtful thing to do. I was raised in some difficult circumstances, and a center like this would have meant a lot to me and my family. I'm glad more of these places exist though it's sad the world needs them. Xx

So happy to help be a part of this.
Can I ask if they have a holiday drive for their centers? I think the fam would love to raise funds to help them celebrate the upcoming holidays! Thinking a dinner drive for Thanksgiving and a gift drive for Christmas.

That is very sweet of you FAM. You're already donating the max to us and here you are asking how can you do more. You have a beautiful heart. But we are currently donating $500.00 a month for now. As we grow, we will increase. So we will continue to do our best and continue to grow π€π

This is so wonderful - you are kind generous souls Nico, Mika, Blaze and AJJ! We all are proud to be a part of it, thank you for giving us that opportunity too. And in honor of your mother, is even lovelier! When you take a step back and look at the amazing reach of GOOD that BTS has done by bringing people together through their music, but then inspiring them to pay it forward and spread that love. It's all a beautiful thing!

This resonates perfectly with what BTS is about and certainly Army and the WG2SAY Family...human dignity, lifting others into their full potencial, and mutual respect. Question: how might we as Patreon members add funds to your monthly support of The Center for Transforming Lives?
