After two spinal surgeries ended her career, Mary was fighting to keep a safe roof over her teenage son's head, and her home's foundation was failing.

There are homes that are simply four walls and a roof. And then there are homes that hold an entire family's world inside them, their faith, their memories, their future. For Mary, a devoted Houston mother raising a 14-year-old football player with big dreams, her home has always been the latter. It's the place where everything that matters lives. And right now, it's at risk.

At The Restoration Team, we believe that every family deserves a safe, secure, and dignified place to call home. Mary's story is exactly why we exist. And why your support matters more than ever.

After 17 years in her home, one neighbor's act of kindness changed everything. This is what community restoration looks like.

Sometimes the most powerful things begin with the simplest gestures. For Ruby Lewis, it started with neighbors across the street, people who had already experienced the work of The Restoration Team firsthand, noticing that Ruby needed help and deciding to say something about it. That one conversation set off a chain of events that Ruby now has only one word for: a miracle.

While attention has rightly focused on the Hill Country, communities like San Angelo—where over 2,000 homes were damaged—have received little support or visibility.

As an organization rooted in disaster response and restoration, we believe it’s our responsibility to amplify these overlooked needs. We’re asking our supporters to step in and help families who are still waiting for relief to arrive.

Miss Haughton's home is now safer, stronger, and more accessible than ever.
