The Purpose
#TheCallOfImpact is a call to action challenge designed to spread awareness of the silent struggles children with incarcerated parents face. The COVID-19 global pandemic has become a devastating factor in the communication for children of inmates. The financial burden families face daily makes it significantly harder for children to consistently communicate with their parent(s) while incarcerated.
The Goal
To provide funding support for children of incarcerated parents so they can stay connected with their parents through phone communication and provide family reunification services that will preserve, develop, and improve the relationships between the child and their incarcerated parent.
Our Fundraising Goal : The Impact
32,000 Minutes
That's $200,000 and 12,000 calls.

-
Fund 250 youth to communicate with their incarcerated parent 4 times a month
-
