"Manos brought me and my family back!"

I came to Manos House as a pretty messed up guy. I left knowing that I could be successful, enrolled in College, and with the support of my family – who I thought I had lost forever. Manos brought my family back.

"It takes a whole village and Manos House was our village"

I can’t thank you enough for caring. It’s so hard, as a parent, to feel so completely helpless. I guess that’s why they say it takes a village. I never dreamed that the staff (You, Chris Long, and Krista) at Manos would be our village. May God bless you in every endeavor.
