Phleaz is actively helping women get their lives back!! Here’s how ⬇️
In 2008, Carol Kelley (Phleaz Founder), made her first visit to a women’s prison with a friend of hers.
After leaving the prison that day, they talked about the incredibly limited options these women have when they’re released.
They talked about what they could do to help them, not just in the short term, but long term to achieve a sustainable life for them and their children.
The journey to starting a non-profit is exceptionally long, difficult, time-consuming and expensive.
However, Carol feels extremely blessed to have had a part in starting this program call Passages, Women's Transitional Living. Passages is focused on helping “broken” women learn life skills that help them in the long run to have a healthy life and to be better moms.
Passages opened its doors in April 2013 to receive the first women coming out of prison with nothing but (maybe) hope.
It has had amazing success in helping over 400 women since that time being financed by donations and non-government grants.
Passages accepts no government funding but is financed strictly through donations and grants.
In this effort, Passages has raised more than $774,000 in cash through grants and pledges.
This new “home” will help women transition from incarceration or homelessness to a life of meaning and independence through guidance, counseling, and Bible study.
And we are proud to say that with every Phleaz purchase, a donation is made to Passages!
