Meet another inspiring Acts of Love recipient - Edward! Edward is a single father and was referred to the Family Preservation Program at MUST Ministries.

He aged out of foster care himself and has no support system due to his family and friends either being in prison or struggling with active addictions. After being released from incarceration, Edward started working with DFCS, Family Treatment Court, and other resources to obtain custody of his children.

He completed the parenting classes and obtained his high school diploma. He wanted to do better for his children and completed his DFCS case plan to obtain full custody of his children, which was successfully done about 2 months ago.

He is currently working as a forklift operator. Must Ministries assisted with his hotel for one week and he has been able to keep up with the costs throughout searching for permanent housing. With past felony charges on his record, he has faced barriers in being approved for housing. Must Ministries were able to find a private landlord with availability. With living in a motel for quite some time, he does not have any furniture of his own.

That's where Fish listeners like YOU stepped in to help provide:

• Furniture for home (bedrooms, living room, dining room)
• New TV
• $500 to Wal-Mart to help with household items and stock the fridge

Thank you to MUST Ministries for being a part of this special Act of Love for Edward!!

One simple Facebook post, seeking what to do with my kids old VHS tapes  post lead us to Matthew a 23 year-old with Down Syndrome and his amazing mom Kathy. VHS tapes bring Matthew purpose and great joy. And thanks to numerous FISH listeners we were able to give Matthew hundreds of VHS tapes and learn more about the special needs of others.

This is a sweet call with our Fish Uber Angel Lauren Mulvihill. 

She changed the life of a veteran after she drove him home from the hospital and noticed that his house was not suitable for anyone to live in. Lauren came up blank when she checked with some area churches and government agencies to see if they could assist Mr. Ronald, so she asked her personal friends on Facebook if they would be willing to help and not only have they refurbished this vets house but her local Home Depot came alongside to help supply materials and appliances. 

As a Fish Act of Love, we wanted to gift Lauren some flowers and a gift card so she could do something for herself since she has so selflessly helped another. Thanks for being such an inspiration, Lauren Mulvihill!
