Hanging Onto Hope is partnering once again with the foundation for their Survivors' Christmas Toy Drive: Giving Hope to Families Affected by Domestic Violence. This year marks their biggest outreach ever—providing Christmas gifts and encouragement to 500 families, a record number that shows the incredible growth of this mission. Tahirah shares updates on her life, including her season of caring for her parents, and speaks openly about what continues to fuel her passion for survivor advocacy. She also highlights the foundation's powerful new support resource—their Emergency Rescue Vehicle Program. With the Mercedes van she received last year, the foundation has already helped survivors and their families escape dangerous situations with dignity and safety. She also offers an inspiring update on the upcoming House of Hope, a shelter designed to offer safety, support, and a place of true healing for survivors. This episode is a reminder of the true spirit of the season: hope, compassion, and showing up in extraordinary ways for those who need it most. https://hangingontohope.org
