• Our Goal

    Our goal at 2Feet Out Ministries is to help those in generational poverty get ‘2 Feet Out’ and stay out!

    Generational poverty is different from situational poverty. Situational poverty is usually caused by a sudden crisis or loss and is often temporary.

    Generational poverty is poverty in families where at least two generations have been affected, and they are not equipped with the tools to move out of their situations.

    Here is what we know about children born into poverty:

    THEY THINK IT’S THEIR FAULT: THEY FEEL GREAT SHAME.
    THEY BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE JUDGE THEM.

    LACK OF EDUCATION IS THE MAIN CAUSE AND THEIR CHILDREN ARE
    MORE LIKELY TO FOLLOW IN THEIR PARENTS’ FOOTSTEPS
    AS THEY ARE THREE TIMES MORE LIKELY TO DROP OF OF HIGH SCHOOL.
    TEEN PREGNANCY IS ALSO MORE LIKELY.

    THEY GIVE UP HOPE: THEY SEE HOW MUCH THEIR PARENTS STRUGGLE
    AND FIGURE THEY ALWAYS WILL TOO.
    THEY CAN’T IMAGINE THEIR LIVES EVER BEING DIFFERENT.

  • School Bus Donation

    We have been given a school bus to transform into a mobile library!

    The bus will go into low income neighborhoods and apartment complexes to reach children and moms of infants and toddlers who have a hard time getting to the local library.  We will offer tutoring and parenting classes on our bus.

    Please consider donating to our bus transformation!
