“Strongwater Farm’s journey, much like the transformative story of Winning Home, is a testament to the profound impact of partnership. When we embarked on the ambitious path of building our new Perley Arena and revitalizing our mission, Winning Home stepped in as a remarkable ally from the very beginning. Their belief in us ignited a spark that continues to shine brightly. We extend our deepest gratitude to Winning Home for being a vital part of our family, nurturing growth, resilience, and hope in the vulnerable corners of our community.”

Jo Bryan, Executive Director
Strongwater Farm

“Winning Home has consistently helped us with a program that is fundamental to our work: providing beds to kids in need. We hear all of the time that a client’s child is sleeping on the floor, couch or an air mattress. Support from Winning Home changes this equation and provides children in need the opportunity to have a restful night’s sleep. We are grateful to Winning Home for helping us provide this basic amenity.”

David McIsaac, Executive Director
Mission of Deeds

“Kids come here to find themselves through creating art in a supportive environment. Over many years Winning Home has become an important partner for us in helping the young people of our community feel seen and heard.”

“Winning Home helps us nourish children through the critical early years when young brains are developing.  We have sit-down dinners at our site; we deliver food to families who cannot come here; and we send our Mobile Market to schools to provide food for children where they are.  We are part of the local safety net, and our aim is to stabilize families whether they come every week or every now and then.  Winning Home’s support has become vital to this work.”

Julie LaFontaine, President and CEO
The Open Door

“Winning Home helped us launch our capital campaign for a new facility back in 2003, and has been a major donor ever since.  It has provided the kind of reliable support that makes the work of an organization like ours possible.  We really wouldn’t be here without Winning Home.”

Jessie Bencosme, Executive Director
Council of Social Concern 

“We support children, teens, and families who have experienced the death of a parent or sibling – an experience shared by one in 13 people in Massachusetts before the age of 18.  Our peer support model allows for grieving and remembering the person in a safe, supportive, and caring space.  We are grateful to Winning Home for its steady support over many years.  You help to make our work possible.”

Kim Cayer, Philanthropy Director
The Children’s Room

“Children experiencing food insecurity have more trouble concentrating in school, visit the school nurse’s office more frequently, and have fewer adult successes.  Gaining Ground is grateful for Winning Home’s longstanding support of our work to ensure that children receive the fresh fruits and vegetables that form the basis of a healthy diet–and a positive future.  From all of us at Gaining Ground, thank you for your generosity!”

Jennifer Johnson, Executive Director
Gaining Ground

“Pathways for Children provides education and care for children in need from birth to age 13, while supporting their families all along the challenging route to a successful adulthood.  Winning Home helps with our school-age program – a creative mix of science and math plus cooking, dancing, painting, playing instruments and more for children after school, during school vacations and all summer long.”
