PLEASE LEAVE US A REVIEW

Newby-ginnings is a nonprofit organization that opened in October 2013. When my ex and I were struggling to make ends meet on one income, I heard about Theresa Hart and the help she provided to veterans in need. Desperate for financial assistance after having my car repossessed and running out of groceries, I reached out to Theresa for help. Despite not being able to offer much financial aid at the time, she still managed to provide me with a basket of snacks and gift cards to Texas Roadhouse. It was a kind gesture, and it meant the world to us when we were at our lowest point. This organization was born out of deep sadness, but it is truly incredible. The more people who support and help it grow, the more veterans on the edge of despair they can assist. I was once in that dark place, feeling suicidal and lost. I thought no one would care or offer help. That's when Theresa came into my life and saved me in ways she may never realize. Not only did she provide me with food that day, but she also had a heartfelt conversation with me about hitting rock bottom. Her words completely shifted my mindset and made me see that giving up wasn't the answer. I am forever grateful for the help she provided me that day, and I know I can never fully repay her kindness. However, I am able to support her mission by donating what I can when I have the means. Since my divorce and encountering troubled times again, I have found solace in Theresa and her team at Newby-ginnings. Having their support has made facing these challenges feel less overwhelming, as I can lean on them for support and essential items that we need without having to spend extra money elsewhere.
