In 2024, Catholic Charities Fort Worth achieved a milestone that resonates deeply with us: assisting more than 1,000 households in escaping poverty through their long-term case management and financial resiliency programs. Their unwavering commitment to “Relentlessly ending poverty” is a mission that aligns closely with our own values of community support and compassion.
As a sponsor, we at Supreme Garage Door feel deeply connected to this cause. We are proud to stand alongside other committed organizations like Frost Bank, TXU Energy, and Ciera Bank in supporting Catholic Charities Fort Worth’s mission. Together, we are making a tangible difference in the lives of those in our community who need it most.
The “Creating Hope” event, held at the beautiful Amon G. Carter Jr. Exhibits Hall in Fort Worth, was an evening filled with hope and inspiration. We were moved by the stories of families who have benefited from Catholic Charities’ services. One such story was that of Krischelle Cook, a mother who found a “bigger, brighter future” after overcoming debt and domestic abuse with the help of Catholic Charities. Her journey is a poignant reminder of the transformative impact these programs can have on people’s lives.
The event also highlighted the generosity of our community, with nearly $800,000 raised to support Catholic Charities’ mission. This funding is crucial for continuing their five Out of Poverty Pathways: Education, Emotional Resiliency, Employment, Financial Resiliency, and Resource Stability. These pathways have yielded impressive results, including educational credentials for nearly 200 students, increased emotional resiliency, and employment at $15 per hour or higher for 77% of clients.
For us, sponsoring the “Creating Hope” event was more than just a corporate
commitment; it was a personal expression of our belief in the power of community and the importance of giving back. We are honored to have been part of this meaningful evening and look forward to continuing our support for Catholic Charities Fort Worth as they strive to end poverty, one family at a time.
As we reflect on this incredible evening, we are reminded that the success of organizations like Catholic Charities Fort Worth depends on the collective effort of individuals, businesses, and the community as a whole. The transformative stories we heard during the event serve as a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we come together to create change.
At Supreme Garage Door, we firmly believe that when we uplift those in need, we all rise together. That’s why we’re more committed than ever to supporting not just Catholic Charities but other initiatives that build stronger, more resilient communities. We hope this inspires others to take action—whether through volunteering, donating, or spreading awareness—because even small acts of kindness can create a ripple effect that changes lives.
It was an honor to stand alongside other generous sponsors and community members who share this vision. Together, we’re building a brighter future, one step at a time. Here’s to many more opportunities to give back, support our neighbors, and make a lasting difference.
