With the growing number
of single parent families, Dallas businessman Ray Salinas sought to
help these individuals by forming the Single Parent Foundation. The
organization was designed to assist families on several levels.
Seven out of ten households with children are maintained solely on
the income of one parent. As you can imagine it gets harder everyday
to meet the demands of parenting. "I am excited about this wonderful
opportunity to help families. I am a single parent
and I have a lot of friends who are single parents and I empathize
with how hard it is for them just to make it" says Salinas. "We
really want to reach out to these families and do whatever we can to
help." |

The Single Parent Foundation is a unique and exciting non-profit organization. The goal of the Single Parent Foundation is to help hard working families that would normally fall through the cracks because they have a household income of over $30,000 per year but run into emergency situations where they need help. The foundation does not provide a handout but rather emergency services for the people who need it. Whether we fund an emergency car repair or temporarily provide money for daycare services we believe that we are helping families get back on their feet and stabilizing the lives of the children affected by the difficulties of parents struggling to meet their needs. To further our mission, we recently acquired three-time SuperBowl champion Darren Woodson as our national spokesperson. Having grown up in a single parent household, he too can understand the difficulties that face single parents on a daily basis. |
