Support BCM's Year-End Campaign

Despite their best efforts, low-income working families in our community are facing the fear of eviction this holiday season. Thanks to caring supporters like you, BCM helps families to remain in their homes, their children in their same schools, and provides Hope for achieving lasting financial stability.

BCM serves vulnerable neighbors through preventive measures like emergency rental assistance during a crisis - loss of a job or medical emergencies - stabilizing homes and sparing children the devastating trauma of displacement. BCM's case managers provide financial and life skills education to ensure that hardworking families can have a brighter future.

Right now, BCM's Year-End Campaign is in full swing. Thank you to everyone who has supported our campaign! Please join the list of generous supporters helping to fuel the life-changing interventions BCM provides to the community. Give today to ensure that no family falls through the crack.

Budget for Life Changes Lives with Your Help

BCM Georgia envisions a future where every family has a safe home, children can learn without interruption, and communities are stronger through increased stability and opportunity. Our work extends beyond immediate crisis assistance. It is an investment in the strength of children, the resilience of families, and the health of entire communities, paving the way for a brighter future.

Our Budget for Life Program directly addresses the needs of vulnerable families, working alongside them as they learn to budget, pay down debt, and establish lifelong habits that lead to financial security.

One mother in our program sent us a poem about the impact, titled From Stress to Strength. In it she writes:

"I used to stretch a dollar like it had wings, Praying it would fly me past overdue things....

But then came a shift, a door opened wide, A class that taught me to look deep far inside...."
