More Than Homes: How One Story Turned Into a Second Chance

I want to share a story with you.

It started at the beach, with a borrowed surfboard, and a smile that stopped our whole team in their tracks.

Last September, we hosted our second annual WeRevive Beach Day with the San Diego Rescue Mission.

That’s where we met Donald… nine months sober, still in the early stages of rebuilding his life, and stepping into the ocean for the very first time.

He stood up on that board like it was nothing.

Like healing was something he could ride instead of chase. 🏄🏽‍♂️

Fast forward to today, Donald just graduated from SDRM’s Mission Academy, and during the ceremony, we had the honor of awarding him our fifth WeRevive Housing Scholarship. 🥳

That $6,000 housing scholarship covered the deposit and furnishings for his very first apartment since his life got off track - it’s giving him the traction he needs to start fresh.

We provide this scholarship every fall and spring to recognize someone who’s not only overcome hardship, but has chosen healing…

Someone who’s ready to build a new life.

None of this is random.

None of this happens without you.

Because of agents like Seth O’Byrne, Jan Ryan, Jesse Swonetz, Jake Akers, Laura Kelley, Bryan Devore, and Devon Booth, who trusted us with renovation opportunities this quarter, we can say YES to #ONE more.

Donald wrote in his application:

“I’ve learned how to lean on a community of great people that want me to win.”

That line stuck with me.

Because of you (you’re our community), we’re able to do more than just restore homes…we can restore hope in those who lost it.
