Imagine you are in a dark tunnel and there is no way of getting out. You are hoping for the sun to guide you with its shining lights so you can escape this scary place. Suddenly you see the sun and run towards it. Once you are out, you see people laughing, butterflies flying, and the sun shining bright above everyone. Is this not one of the best feelings?
There are individuals with mental illness who are in a dark tunnel waiting for the sun to show them the shining light to a more beautiful place.
Let Brighter House be the sun and your donation be the shining lights to help them to get out of the dark tunnel.
