Volunteer with us and change the New Generation!

“Thanks to New Generation, I was able to prepare for the birth of my child within a safe and loving environment, and get back on my feet prepared for a new life. Seven years later I still benefit from the knowledge and friends I made at New Generation. Because of the relationship I built with one resident I was able to earn my college degree by swapping baby-sitting time and having her all-around support when times were tough. I am proud of what New Generation has helped me and many other women …

“When I became pregnant I was scared, and all alone. I felt so confused and unsure of the way my life would be. I went to a home that helped me. They taught me how to change; they picked me up and let me in…they loved me and nurtured me.”

“A great big thanks to the New Gen folks for remembering my birthday after all these years, that really means a lot! As for Ruthie, I will NEVER FORGET the day I met her and how she chose me as one of the lucky ones to be a part of New Generation so many years ago. I will always be indebted to her and Toni Trotzer for being instrumental in guiding me during troubled times. So, please let her know that not only do I return the ‘Hello,’ but I would like to extend a ‘Thank you Ruthie!'”

“The shelter is a real home and the staff want to see all the residents succeed. It’s not just a room and board facility. Their onsite support and the connections they provided to other community resources were so beneficial.”

“New Generation takes in women who are expecting a child and teaches them all that they are willing to learn. New Generation is exactly what it sounds like – a new generation coming into this world. And if you want a second chance to make life better, this would be your opportunity.”
