On #givingtuesday, we give thanks for you!
You made a difference for one child.
Emily came to Des Moines Pastoral Counseling Center’s Children Overcoming Obstacles of Life (C.O.O.L.) program when she was five years old. She had a difficult time focusing in school and making friends.
Thanks to you, children like Emily are provided with tools to manage her learning and get along with her classmates.
Your support for Emily says everything there is to know about your generous and caring heart. Thank you for your willingness to join in our shared mission to bring hope and healing to people of all ages through counseling and education.
Thank you for supporting the Des Moines Pastoral Counseling Center!
