The best way to help our cause is by donating! We are a non-profit organization, so all proceeds go directly to supporting the residents in our group home and aiding them in securing the help they need to get back on their feet. We provide them with resources, services, and financial support in order to help them take advantage of their second chance. Financial support is the best way to sustain the continuation of these group home services and programs. 

We understand that money can be tight and you may not be in a position where you are able to donate. If this is the case for you, but you feel inspired to take action then there are other ways to help without devoting your money. This can be accomplished by telling your family and friends about us and our mission, and by sharing our site on social media. 

If you believe you are qualified and would like to take more direct action in helping others embrace their second chance then we encourage you to apply for a position at Elise's House. We look forward to receiving your application and potentially working with you in our group home!
