Gabriel Group couldn’t be happier to announce that it has raised a total of $16,000 for its 2019 Pay-It-Forward partner organization, The Sparrow’s Nest Maternity Home. The annual effort beat its $15,000 goal set for the calendar year and also helped Gabriel Group surpass the $150,000 mark for the company’s overall contributions from the past twelve years of Pay-It-Forward charitable giving.

The mission of The Sparrow’s Nest is to empower young moms and their children to realize their full potential. As a nonprofit, the organization helps teen mothers who experience homelessness or abusive situations by providing them with shelter, resources and supplies. Gabriel Group adopted The Sparrow’s Nest throughout 2019 by organizing and planning various fundraisers to support their amazing cause and program. Events included a summer car wash, various holiday raffle basket lotteries and quarterly happy hours.

In addition to collecting funds, many different toy/supply drives were hosted as well in order to provide The Sparrow’s Nest with as many resources as possible on top of monetary support. Gabriel Group associates also received the opportunity to tour the maternity home itself to get an idea of what day-to-day life is like for the mothers and babies who call The Sparrow’s Nest home and benefit directly from donations that are made.

Associates are motivated to continuing making a difference for Gabriel Group’s new local nonprofit partner organization as the company begins its next annual Pay-It-Forward push in 2020. Stay tuned to hear what group will be chosen in the next couple weeks on the Gabriel Group Facebook page!
