Help Celebrate Outstanding Model Couples

These are couples who

  • are examples of relationships that are extraordinary
  • are role models for others to emulate
  • are making valuable contributions to the community by giving their time
  • their faith and religious community
  • their business, civic, charitable, or other communities
  • other organizations committed to serving others

The Public Recognition of Such Couples Is Long Overdue!

Help Support The

“Keeping At Risk Families Together Project”

These are couples who:

  • are struggling because of the economic downturn forcing many families into a financial crisis
  • have lost jobs, are losing their homes, their savings and retirement, their insurance as well as their self esteem and confidence
  • are so stressed because of their financial burdens that family squabbles and conflicts could tear these families apart

Your Support Will Help by

  • providing “on line” relationship education, training, information, teleclasses and referrals
  • providing both “on line” and “in person” relationship seminars, classes, relationship and financial counseling at minimal or no cost
  • focus on teaching couples communication skills, problem solving techniques, conflict resolution strategies and ways to strengthen the family unit
