💚 What if we looked for strengths first?

It’s easy to see what someone is struggling with. Their circumstances. Their mistakes. The things they don’t have.

But what happens when we choose to see what they DO have?

Strength. Ability. Potential. Resilience.

At Good Neighbor and our partnering agencies, we don’t just want to meet needs. We want to help people recognize the strengths they already possess and build from there.

💚 Good Neighbor is feeling incredibly loved this week!

We started the week with volunteers helping clean and organize a shed at our Women’s Shelter and ended it with another amazing Yanmar Golf Event raising support for Good Neighbor. ⛳💚 Thank you to Yanmar America and to Harris!

Different kinds of generosity. One incredible community.

We told our friends at Yanmar:

Because you do what you do, we get to say “YES” to people who hear “NO” far too often.

Whether you give, volunteer, provide a meal, sponsor an event, or simply show up when there’s a need, you are part of every YES.

Thank you for loving Good Neighbor and the people we serve so well. 💚

We’re better together.

💚 TEAM SPOTLIGHT: Meet Dianne Linares!

Meet Dianne, our Rapid Rehousing Case Manager!

Rapid Rehousing is about helping individuals and families experiencing homelessness move into permanent housing as quickly as possible, then providing the support they need as they work toward stability. 🏠

And that’s where Dianne shines.

She builds relationships, helps navigate the obstacles that can stand between homelessness and housing, and makes sure the people she serves know one very important thing:

They don’t have to navigate it alone. 💚

Around Good Neighbor, we also know Dianne doesn’t do much “halfway.” 😂 Give her an idea and there’s a good chance a plan, flyer, Facebook post AND snacks are already in the works!

We’re grateful to have her heart, energy, and commitment on our team.

Help us show Dianne some love! 💚

We’re better together.

💚 A Better Bartow Starts With Us.

There’s something pretty special about this community.

When there’s a need, Bartow shows up.

We love our partnership with AiAO Ministry and the way they work alongside Good Neighbor and so many other nonprofits with one common goal: making Bartow better for everyone.

Different organizations. Different missions. Different people.

One community. 💚

And here’s the best part: you don’t have to run a nonprofit or have a huge platform to make a difference.

Sometimes change starts with one person deciding to show up.

One person becomes a few.
A few become a community.
And a community can change lives.

So, Neighbor... what if that one person is you?

💚 THIS is what your support does.

We have some GOOD NEWS from Good Neighbor worth celebrating!

Recently, THREE of our shelter guests moved into permanent housing! 🏠🎉

Three new beginnings. Three next chapters. Three neighbors taking a huge step toward stability.

And we want you to know something:

YOU are part of this.

Whether you give monthly, sponsor us through your business, provide a meal, drop off treats, volunteer your time, or simply show up when there’s a need, you help make this work possible.

Today’s We Love Our Donors photo may feature someone dropping off treats, but it represents something much bigger.

It represents a community that continues to say, “We’re here. How can we help?”

So today, help us celebrate THREE neighbors who are heading HOME! 🏠💚

And to every person who helps us do what we do...

THANK YOU. We truly are better together.

💚 TEAM SPOTLIGHT: Meet Teresa Mauldin!

For 15+ years, Teresa has been a familiar face, a listening ear, and a steady presence at Good Neighbor.

Some call her Teresa. Some call her “Big Mama.” Around here, we just know her door is always open. 💚

As our Programs Manager, Teresa has spent years sitting across from people during some of their hardest days, listening without judgment, encouraging them forward, and reminding them that they deserve to be heard, respected, and loved.

She has celebrated victories, walked through setbacks, shared plenty of laughs and has given a little tough love along the way. 😉

Fifteen years means countless people have walked through Teresa’s door. And countless people have walked back out feeling a little more hopeful than when they came in.

That’s a pretty incredible legacy.

Help us celebrate our very own Big Mama and 15+ years of loving our neighbors well! 💚

💚 BUSINESS SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT 💚

As we continue our Annual Business Sponsorship Initiative, we want to take a moment to celebrate another incredible business that continues to make a difference in our community!

✨ Glenda Mitchell Law Firm✨

You do so much for this community, and we are incredibly grateful for your partnership and support. Your genuine care for others and your generosity are evident in the way you show up and give back. It truly makes a difference!

Thank you for believing in our mission, investing in our community, and being a GOOD NEIGHBOR! 🏡💚

We are so thankful for you and the impact you continue to make!

💚 TEAM SPOTLIGHT: Meet Erica Slocum!

Today we’re introducing Erica, our Transitional Housing Case Manager!

Our Transitional Housing Program gives individuals and families the opportunity to move beyond crisis and work toward long-term stability and independent housing. And Erica gets to walk alongside them through that journey, helping navigate real-life challenges, work toward goals, and celebrate the victories along the way. 🏠💚

For Erica, it comes back to something simple: every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.

We’re so grateful for the compassion, integrity, and faith she brings to Good Neighbor every day.

And when she’s not cheering on our residents... there’s a good chance she’s cheering on a team somewhere because Erica is a serious sports fanatic! 🏈🏀⚾

Help us show Erica some love!

We’re better together. 💚

💚 We know their names.

You may drive by and see someone experiencing homelessness.

We see a neighbor.

We know names. We know stories. We know the person who makes us laugh, the one who keeps trying, and the one we're still hoping will say yes to help.

Because when you know someone's name, it's a lot harder to look away.

There is still work to be done. And because of your support, Good Neighbor gets to keep showing up, learning names, building relationships, and reminding people:

“We see you. And we're still here.” 💚

There is still work to be done.

Let's do it together. https://fundraise.givesmart.com/form/_bTE-g?vid=1s6s5n

💚 TEAM SPOTLIGHT: Meet Rusty Gunter!

Some of the most important work at Good Neighbor happens outside the walls of the shelter.

Meet Rusty Gunter, one of the incredible people behind our Street Outreach team.

Rusty goes into our community to meet people experiencing unsheltered homelessness right where they are. And before resources, housing plans or next steps can happen, something else often has to happen first:

Relationship. Trust. Dignity.

Street Outreach isn't always about an immediate solution.

Sometimes it's a conversation.
Sometimes it's connecting someone to a resource.
Sometimes it's showing up again... and again... and again.

Because people need to know someone hasn't stopped seeing them. 💚
And apparently, when Rusty isn't out serving our neighbors, you might find him living his best 80s life playing in his cover band, Flux Capacitor. 🎸😂

Street Outreach Case Manager by day. 80s rock star by night.

Help us show Rusty some love in the comments and thank him for the way he continues to show up for our neighbors!

We're better together. 💚
