Celebrate HER by providing a lifeline to a mother in need

Honor a mom in your life, or cherish the memory of one who has passed, by giving back. Your Mother’s Day tribute to The Ark provides vital rent and utility assistance for local single mothers. Celebrate her legacy by offering a bridge to a neighbor in need.

Honoring Yours.
Supporting Ours.

At the Ark 50% of the population we serve are low-income single working moms.

The Ark insures that single working moms stay afloat when crisis arises.

502 Children

Last year, 502 children in our community faced the terrifying possibility of losing their home. We stepped in to make sure their story didn't end in a shelter, keeping the lights on and their worlds stable.

As of early 2026, roughly 49% of households with children in Clarke County are headed by a single parent. This is significantly higher than the national average (roughly 34%), meaning nearly half the moms in our backyard are doing it alone.

223 Female-Headed Households with Children

“The Ark helped my family in a season where I felt like I was drowning. The process was simple, but more importantly, it was filled with kindness and dignity. I never once felt judged, only loved and cared for. Their help with my rent gave me stability and kept me from going back to a life I had fought hard to leave behind. To me, The Ark is truly being the hands and feet of Jesus, meeting people in their hardest moments with compassion and real help.”
