Transform Lives. Build Futures. Heal.

This Christmas, Give the Gift of Trulliome .

When you donate to Mary and Elizabeth’s House this holiday season, you’re giving a mother and her children more than shelter—you’re giving them a place to heal, hope to hold onto, and a future to believe in.

What Happens Inside Our Walls

Safe Harbor

The first gift we offer is safety. A locked door they control. A bedroom where children can sleep without fear. A kitchen where they can cook dinner as a family.

Community Connection

Every Sunday, volunteers and families work side by side. Gardening together. Sharing meals. Building relationships that extend far beyond program completion.

Counseling & Healing

Professional support for trauma, domestic violence recovery, and mental health—because healing the heart is as important as housing the body.

Skill Building That Matters

Financial literacy that prevents future crises

Parenting workshops that strengthen family bonds

Job readiness training that opens doors

Life skills that build lasting independence

See What You Can Do

The Legacy Living in These Walls

The building that houses Mary and Elizabeth’s House was once home to Tommie and Elizabeth Johnson. Tom was known as the generous patriarch of the Johnson and Swain families—a man who opened his doors to anyone in need.

When Tom passed, the family made a decision that would honor his legacy forever: transform his home into a beacon of hope for the community he loved.

Today, that same spirit of radical hospitality lives on. Every family who walks through our doors steps into a legacy of love that spans generations.
