Stories of hope

Real families. Real change.

These are the voices of families who reached out in crisis — and found dignity, support, and a path forward.

“When we were staring down the terrifying possibility of eviction, The Black Fairy Godmother Foundation showed up like a miracle. At our lowest, they didn't just offer help — they offered hope, dignity, and action. Because of their support, we were able to stop the eviction process and take a deep breath for the first time in weeks.

Their impact is real, direct, and life-changing. We are still here — still housed, still together — because they stepped in when no one else could. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in us and helping us hold on.”

— Shanel L.

“I want to send a thank you to The Black Fairy Godmother herself and all of her followers for donating to help myself and my daughter. It has been a rough couple of months taking loss after loss, but I never stop praying. I didn't expect her to reply back to me, being as though I'm sure it's a lot of many others in need that reach out as well — yet God is able. I pray that her cup runneth over with blessings. She doesn't know how much weight this has lifted off my shoulders. She is truly God-sent, because I didn't expect to receive any help at all. So with a grateful heart, thank you again — and to everyone who helped make this happen.”

— Daionta Davis

“I became homeless in February of 2025 and never thought I would be in this situation. I thought that I had a plan for me and my son. I was disappointed in myself, but I knew that Ms. Simone would not judge me. I reached out to The Black Fairy Godmother Foundation, and they helped me get back on my feet. My place will be ready this coming Wednesday. I am forever grateful. I pray that more people stand behind Ms. Simone and her selflessness to help those going through hardships. May God continue to do exceedingly and abundantly more than what we know.”

— Pam J.

“Never in my life have I seen an organization that constantly gives and shows love without hesitation. Truly, you and your team are such a blessing! When my family needed help, we were shown so much love. Not to mention, the Mother's Day blessings I received were amazing. I want to say thank you and may God bless you beyond measure!”

— Terah Josey

“I would like to say thank you so much. I didn't know how I was going to pay my rent being in my current situation, and you were sent from God. My kids and I will forever be grateful for your kind gesture. I pray God send you back double for helping little old me. Again, thank you from the Smith Family!”

— The Smith Family
