Story
The first Tuesday Porch in South Tampa drew 23 families. Ana followed up personally with every household within 48 hours.
By month three, 47 of those families had signed up for monthly giving. The average gift was $18 — not because we asked for $18, but because that's what felt right to neighbors helping neighbors.
