Celebrating 2 Years of Building Pathways for Single Mothers to Thrive!

A Note from Rekita...

If I’m being honest… two years ago, I didn’t have everything figured out.

What I did have was a deep knowing, that there were so many single moms, just like me, working hard every single day and still falling through the cracks.

Being told you “Make too much” for help… while your bank account says otherwise… is something I’ll never forget.

Thrive was created from that place and to see what it’s become in just two years. It honestly means everything.

This isn’t just an organization, it’s personal. It's my purpose. It's a community.

What We’ve Been Able to Do...Together!

Because of this village (and I truly mean that), here’s what the past year has looked like:

• Over $20,000 in emergency assistance distributed Helping moms stay in their homes, put food on the table, and cover childcare when life gets heavy

• 2 Homeownership Cohorts hosted with Corissa Sutton Enterprises We started with just 7 moms in our very first cohort… and now our 4th cohort has 20 moms enrolled with a growing waitlist for this fall

• 40 moms graduated from our Homeownership Cohort since 2024 (40 families closer to stability and ownership)

• 30+ moms received complimentary home cleanings from Crystal Quartz Cleaning

   Because sometimes peace starts with walking into a clean space

• Monthly Moms Meet-Ups co-hosted with Emerge Mothers Academy & MommyCo

  From movie nights, Galentine’s, Momsgiving, pumpkin patch & bonfires, summer BBQs, indoor play spaces, to our “Waiting to Exhale” night, we’ve created space for moms to simply be.

• 90+ moms served and still growing and every single one of them matters

Annual Moms Only Overnight Retreat:

In 2025, we hosted our First Annual Moms-Only Overnight Retreat, welcoming 12 incredible moms for a time of rest, connection, and renewal including yoga, reiki, drumming circle, all-inclusive meals, and so much more! Because every mom deserves time to reset and be poured into too.

We’re so excited to be bringing it back…

2nd Annual Moms-Only Weekend Retreat 

📍 Charlson Meadows – Victoria, MN 📅 September 11–13, 2026

We will have both overnight and day conference options.

Pre-registration will open in April 2026 with limited discounted early bird pricing.

Open Registration will open June 2026 with limited spots, and we do expect it to fill quickly!

What Thrive Really Is

Thrive isn’t just programs or numbers.

It’s the mom who can finally breathe because rent is covered.

It’s the mom who walks into her first cohort unsure… and leaves confident.

It’s the laughter at meet-ups. The tears at retreats. The friendships & community that form in between.

It’s a reminder that you don’t have to do this alone.

Where We’re Going

We’re growing and we’re dreaming bigger!

Our goal is to continue expanding and reaching more moms… but with that growth also comes a greater need.

As our community grows, so does the need for funding to support moms through real-life challenges: housing, childcare, food, and stability.

Looking ahead, we’re working toward:

• Expanding our homeownership support

• Growing our emergency assistance fund to support more mom's needs.

• Curating more free/affordable community-based events

  
  

  Every dollar counts.

  What may feel small to one person can be life-changing for another.

  Your support doesn’t just meet a need, it restores hope, creates stability, and reminds moms that they are seen and supported.

  And that kind of impact? It reaches far beyond just one family.

  If you feel led to give, we invite you to be part of this work: Donate here

  No donation is too small, and every single gift is truly appreciated.

If You’ve Ever Supported Thrive...Thank You

Whether you’ve donated, partnered, shared a post, volunteered, or simply believed in what we’re building…

You are a part of this.

And I don’t take that lightly... Thank you!

From My Heart

Two years in… and I’m still so sure of this:

We were given our dreams for a reason.

And this one? This one is changing lives... including mine.

Thank you for growing with us. We’re just getting started.

With Love & Gratitude,

XOXO
