America's Preferred Home Warranty Partnership with Child and Family Charities Boosts Efforts During COVID-19

JACKSON, Mich., June 5, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Child and Family Charities (CFC) and America's Preferred Home Warranty (APHW) have a relationship going back nearly a decade. The nonprofit has grown considerably over the years, and APHW has not only kept donating, but repeatedly increased donations, fundraisers, and volunteers. These increases have made a huge impact on CFC's reach among mid-Michigan children, youth and families—particularly during COVID-19.

"APHW has helped us become a stronger organization," said CFC CEO Julie Thomasma. "And because of their help, we felt better about going into this situation, being better able to offer support and increase our services where they are needed most," she said.

Child and Family Charities assists mid-Michigan youth and families through 25 programs across six divisions. They have focused extra efforts around providing food assistance, childcare, shelter, and mental health services during COVID-19, Julie described, because so many more families need them these days, and so much more.

APHW's support also helped CFC to keep their entire staff during COVID-19, and even expand it. "We've actually hired additional coaches to meet the need," she said. "And we've been doing even more work because that need is so great. We're in a really great position because of APHW."

"The support from [APHW President and Owner] Randy Caltrider and APHW gives us that spark of hope to continue working with the populations and families we serve," said CFC Director of Development Demphna Krikorian. "We're seeing the increasing needs, and we'll see more tomorrow and onward until we get through this. And we really couldn't do it without that spark, that hope, that APHW gives us."
