CHRISTMAS 2019 

Today was an amazing day full of smiles, hugs, and happiness as we visited some unfortunate homeless individuals in the Central location of Houston, Texas.

We delivered new leggings, brand new backpack purses, sweaters, toiletries, and hand-crafted CANDY TREES!!! to women as well as new cotton hooded jackets, pants, jeans, candy canes, BEAUTIFUL hand-crafted greeting cards to all, gift boxes and more to both men and women! We especially would like to thank our amazing volunteer/donor SAMANTHA and her peers whom also pitched in to help us make this a very cheerful day.

Samantha who came across our website on volunterhou.org was touched by what we do, so she made it a point to be a part of a fantastic mission and drove from Cypress Texas, just to show just how much she cares for others with a cash donation and beautiful greeting cards that were hand-created along with cute reindeer candy canes, we salute her for everything!

Please enjoy the pictures of hugs and smiles as we near the ending of 2019! 

Thank you to everyone who makes a difference in what we do and believes in, you are the BEST

A Short Story

As a CEO, I have to share with you the overwhelming warmth in my body and tightness in my heart, when you give from your spirit. Here's a short but heartfelt statement, that I received once I presented a special handcrafted CANDY Tree to this beautiful woman as shown below! She said to me, oh, thank you so much! I never had anything like this, thank you again I love you and thank you for remembering us.

Her SMILE even says it! Now, if this doesn't move your heart, then nothing will. Because it sent chills all over my body. It feels good to give and it certainly feels amazing to know that someone feels remembered. Thank you from all of us at 1 STEP FURTHER COMMUNITY CENTER, without your help, we couldn't continue our mission of purpose.
