For over 15 years, HALO has built housing programs all over the world, providing the foundation of a family for children without one,” the HALO Foundation’s official website reads.

“We’re so grateful for the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation for giving our kids a fresh start when they move into a HALO Home,” said HALO Founder and CEO Rebecca Welsh. The Fresh Start Fund gives these kids precisely that,” Rebecca Welsh said. One such cause is the HALO Foundation. The nonprofit is dedicated to helping thousands of homeless and at-risk children around the world. The fund helped HALO staff provide crucial move-in items and take youth shopping for new undergarments, socks, shoes, and clothing, ensuring they got the things they wanted and needed. “Imagine being a teen with only a garbage bag of everything you own. Every child deserves to be confident. Every child deserves dignity. “HALO receives so many calls from kids who need our help. Here are a few recent voicemails on the need in our Kansas City community. HALO can be a solution to providing a safe space. When a teen moves into HALO for the first time, they carry all their belongings in just two or three garbage bags.
