- 2. WINGS OF FAITH FOUNDATION IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION WHICH HELPS LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS FROM UNDER RESOURCED COMMUNITIES, PURSUE THEIR DREAMS OF A HIGHER EDUCATION. THE VISION OF THE FOUNDATION IS TO TEACH A CHILD TO DREAM AND EXPERIENCE ALL THAT GOD WANTS HER TO BECOME. Where Futures Take Flight
- 3. Three years ago, Tara Furlough, local business owner, community leader, and entrepreneur, had a dream to start a business that would employ teenage girls from under-resourced communities, giving them the opportunity to change their lives forever. Now open, Shes All That Boutique, located in Owens Cross Roads AL, offers unique fashion, jewelry and accessories for women and teen girls. After cost, proceeds from the store are directly donated to the Wings of Faith Foundation. The Foundations central purpose is to enhance educational opportunities for students through partnerships with educators and through our mentorship program. This experience will help each student develop a purpose in life and create avenues for advancing in higher education. Students are employed at the boutique during their 4 years at a local high school. During their tenure, the students are taught work ethic, how to run a business, and more importantly, how to pay it forward by giving back. What if you gave of yourself without expecting anything in return? I love the story of The Butterfly Effect. How your influence is rippled through another, and that person may influence 10, and those 10 may influence 100 and so on. When Jesus walked the earth, He caused more controversy with a spiritual path than an earthly one. He is our greatest example of giving everything, realizing only a few would truly embrace the freedom found in Him. Not all will benefit from your kindness or gifts, but the ones that do, will cause a tidal wave of hope all for His glory. Shes All That Boutique, partnered with the Wings of Faith Foundation, is a dream come true for Tara Furlough and is changing the lives of local teen girls, one purchase at a time.

- 5. We had three girls that went through our program and worked with us during our first year. They helped us build the business from the ground up and were a huge part of our early success. They graduated from New Hope High School in 2014 and each received college funding through our foundation in addition to the grants they qualified for. Each is the first in their families to attend college and each has a current GPA of 3.5 and higher! All the forces of darkness cannot stop what God has ordained. Isaiah 14:27
- 6. NEW HOPE HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION 2014 Every child deserves a champion. An adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection and insists they become the best that they can possibly be. -Rita F. Pierson
- 8. It takes more than a dream and money to be successful in college. The solution for providing these girls with not only the funds, but also with the life skills, is through our mentorship program. Each student is paired with a mentor and given the opportunity for continued one on one interaction and support. The mentor plays an important role in their life by building trust, and modeling positive behaviors and actions. The mentor understands that they are helping each mentee build a strong foundation in Christ and working to help them recognize the talents God has created within her. The program exposes each student to the unique opportunities that will help her succeed and become all that God wants her to be.
- 9. You were born with the ability to change someones life. Dont ever waste it.
- 10. In June 2014, we took the girls on a mission trip to Baja Mexico. An important part of the foundation is to give the girls the opportunity to be a part of mission work, and what it means to volunteer and give back. Jesus walked the earth as a humble servant and as Christians, it is our great commission to love Jesus, love like Jesus, and to go out in to the world and spread the gospel. They were exposed to a third world community in desperate need of physical, medical, emotional and spiritual support.
- 11. The girls left ready to GIVE that support and were ready to MAKE an impact. They couldnt have imagined the IMPACT that experience would have on THEM.
- 12. For it is in giving that we receive. -St. Francis of Assisi
- 13. I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples. Mother Teresa
