Making Waves This Weekend
The countdown is on! Our annual fundraiser is happening this weekend, and we can't wait to celebrate with you. Get a sneak peek at the incredible live and silent auction items available this year, then join us as we create a ripple effect of hope, second chances, and lasting change for the individuals and families we serve. Every bid helps move our mission forward and makes a meaningful impact in our community.
July was filled with inspiring milestones as our mentees continued building brighter futures. This month, we celebrated individuals being released from parole, filing for CDCA certification, beginning college, graduating with an associate's degree in Criminal Justice, securing employment as a Behavioral Health Technician, having a record sealed, and being reunited with their children. We also applauded two mentees who courageously shared their recovery journeys at College First, demonstrating the ripple effect of hope, resilience, and second chances in action.
Join us tomorrow at Miller's Root Beer & BBQ Stand for Rides & Root Beer!

The Empty Seat Beside Me
The Empty Seat Beside Me has been all over the community this month! Thanks to Planet Fitness, Hancock Federal Credit Union, Brinkman's, and Findlay Family Practice & Dr. Todd Leslie for showcasing WNL and our mission at your businesses!
The Empty Seat Beside Me serves as a representation of someone in Hancock County who is working hard to change their life - but who is waiting for a Mentor. Someone to encourage them, give them hope, and a chance to break the cycle. Could YOU be that person for someone?
Interested in becoming a mentor? Contact Jayme at mentors@welcometoanewlife.org or visit our website to learn about what it means to be a mentor with Welcome to a New Life!
