Family Promise Metrowest's mission is to transform the lives of families with children facing homelessness by mobilizing a diverse community to provide shelter, education, and comprehensive support. Family Promise Metrowest offers a comprehensive, community response to families who are facing homelessness through four programs that address a spectrum of housing and stabilization needs: Our Shelter

program offers temporary housing to families with children that have lost their home; the SAIL program supports families that graduate from our shelter for one to two years to ensure their successful transition back into community housing; our LIFE program helps families facing eviction or shelter entry remain in safe housing; and our Steps to Success program, which provides educational and career-building assistance to help families increase their income and create stable careers. By providing encouragement, guidance, and the resources to reach their goals, we help motivated, hard-working families move out of poverty and into stable, sustainable homes.

Steps to Success Coordinator Kathy Rodman recently joined longtime Family Promise Metrowest volunteer Steve Beling at Analog Devices, Inc.’s Social Impact Fair, proudly representing Family Promise and sharing our mission with the community. As an Analog Devices employee and dedicated FPM volunteer, Steve has been instrumental in building a meaningful and lasting partnership between our organizations—one that has brought not only generous financial support, but also donations of essential items like backpacks, nonperishable food, and cleaning supplies for the families we serve.

In recognition of his incredible commitment, Steve was recently honored as one of our “Great Connectors” at our annual Volunteer Appreciation Party. We are deeply grateful to Steve and Analog Devices for their continued partnership and unwavering support of Family Promise families.

Summer is almost here—and every child deserves the chance to enjoy the simple joys of the season: splashing in the pool, riding bikes, exploring outdoors, enjoying a cold treat, and making carefree summer memories. Our Summer Drive helps bring those moments to the children in Family Promise Metrowest families while giving caregivers extra support during the months school is out. We’re building momentum, but we need your help to make this summer extra special! Every summer bag and gift card helps create joy, adventure, and a little breathing room for families working hard toward stability.

Summer Bags and Gift Cards are due at Family Promise by Thursday, June 4. Drop off at 6 Mulligan Street, Natick, on Mondays – Thursdays, 9 am – 4 pm, or by appointment. Our public entrance and parking face South Avenue.

This Mother’s Day, we celebrate the extraordinary love, strength, and resilience we witness every day at Family Promise Metrowest. We honor the mothers working tirelessly to create safer, more stable futures for their children, as well as those who have overcome hardship and returned to lift up the next family in need. We also recognize that the spirit of motherhood extends far beyond biology—living in the compassion, care, and generosity of our staff, volunteers, donors, caregivers, and supporters who show us every day what community truly means.

The 12th Annual Framingham Family Fair: A Celebration of Young Children, Families, and the Importance of Early Education, hosted by the Early Childhood Alliance of Framingham, was held on Saturday, April 11th and welcomed families to come enjoy fun, interactive activities and performances offered by 30+ local early educators and community partners. Family Promise Metrowest added a meaningful social justice component with “Houses for Change,” a hands-on social justice initiative that engages children in meaningful giving. At the same time, families received essential items like underwear and Bombas socks, offering both practical support and a sense of dignity.

Marilla and Bianca proudly represented FPM at the TJX Non-Profit Expo, connecting with associates eager to give back. They shared meaningful ways to get involved—whether as teams, individuals, or families—and highlighted FPM’s unique ability to match each person’s skills and passions with a customized volunteer opportunity. The genuine interest and engagement at the table was inspiring, and the FPM seed packets offered as takeaways—symbolizing growth and new beginnings—were a heartfelt and memorable hit.
