“I felt like I had been hit in the face, and I knew God was real.”

When Jona first connected with Watermark Community Development Corporation, he faced significant challenges. However, his determination, faith, and resilient spirit, combined with the support of discipleship and community, transformed his path into one of purpose and possibility.

Watch Jona’s journey and hear in his own words how his life has been impacted through the Job Connection Program and Financial Catalyst as well as through our partnerships with Men of Nehemiah and Brother Bill’s Helping Hand. We are deeply grateful for our local partnerships. Jona’s story is full of grit, faith, and the life-changing impact of generosity.

As we celebrate North Texas Giving Day, your gift today can make the same transformative impact for someone still waiting for their opportunity. This is the reality right now—140+ people have expressed interest in Financial Catalyst and 20+ more are waiting for the Job Connection Program. Every week, we must add neighbors to our waitlist simply because we don’t have the current resources to serve them.

That’s why North Texas Giving Day matters so much this year.

You can help supply these 160+ neighbors with the “yes” they need to access these life-changing economic solutions. That “yes” opens doors to career development, vehicles, homes, businesses, and higher education. Without your help, many neighbors will be kept waiting to be served.

You can create powerful life change today. When you partner with us, you are telling someone like Jona not to give up—there is hope. Your support turns possibility into reality and makes change tangible. Will you give today?
