Daily Essentials

Diapers. Car seats. Clothing. Or something you didn’t think to ask for. We match donations with real needs and reach out when we find a fit.

Community Gardening

Our garden partnership gives moms and kids space to breathe, grow, and reconnect. Nature can hold what the system drops.

Storytelling & Advocacy

We tell the stories others won’t. Our blog is rooted in truth, survival, and change. Watch for our upcoming book, An American Nightmare.

Built by a mom who’s lived it

I started AMGTS because I couldn’t find the kind of help that saw the panic, the grief, the fear of losing your kids just because you’re poor or still healing. Every mom we serve reminds me of who I was, and who I’m still becoming. We’re not here to fix anyone. We’re here to walk beside you through what’s real.

Why We Exist

Protecting Mothers

Poverty and trauma shouldn’t mean family separation. We help moms stay with their kids and find a path to healing.

Breaking Cycles

When moms are safe and supported, the next generation doesn’t carry the same weight. That cycle ends here.

Building Community

We build trust-based relationships, not red tape. Moms are supported, not scrutinized.

Led With Experience

We’re survivors, not outsiders. We know what it’s like to fall through the cracks and fight our way back.

Want to help? Start here.

You don’t have to fix everything. You just have to show up. Whether you donate, host a drive, or join our village, your action matters.

This time, the story is ours to tell.

The stories most people don’t want to hear are the ones we need to tell. Our blog is raw, real, and rooted in lived experience.
