Help Us Reach $15K by October 15

September 29, 2026 by Aisha Wilson

This fall, God’s Best Family is asking our community to help us move closer to a permanent home.

We’ve raised $5,728 through Givebutter so far, and we’re grateful for every gift. Now we’re working to reach $15,000 by October 15.

A space of our own will give our youth programs and community work room to grow. If you’re able to contribute, your gift will help us take the next step. Please share and/or repost this campaign as well. Someone you know may want to support it, too.

Give here: https://givebutter.com/godsbestfamily

Thank you for believing in God’s Best Family and helping us build a lasting space for our community.

Happy Fourth of July from God’s Best Family!

July 4, 2026 by Aisha Wilson

As our nation celebrates Independence Day, all of us at God’s Best Family want to wish you and your loved ones a safe, joyful, and blessed Fourth of July!

The Fourth of July is a time to gather with family and friends, enjoy great food, celebrate our freedoms, and appreciate the communities that make our neighborhoods special. Whether you’re relaxing at home, grilling with loved ones, or heading to Baltimore’s Inner Harbor to enjoy the fireworks, we hope your day is filled with happiness and unforgettable moments.

At God’s Best Family, we are grateful to serve families throughout South Baltimore and beyond. Every community event, youth program, volunteer, partner, and supporter reminds us that when we come together, we create opportunities for hope, connection, and positive change.

As you celebrate today, we encourage everyone to:

  • 🇺🇸 Celebrate responsibly.
  • ❤️ Spend quality time with those you love.
  • 🤝 Look out for your neighbors.
  • ✨ Reflect on the freedoms we enjoy and the responsibility we share to strengthen our communities.

If you’re celebrating downtown today, be sure to enjoy the incredible fireworks over Baltimore’s Inner Harbor—we’ll be there enjoying the festivities as well!

From our God’s Best Family to yours, thank you for allowing us to be part of your community.

Have a safe, fun, and blessed Independence Day!

Happy Fourth of July! 🇺🇸🎆

Teen Program: Pool Fun with a Splash of Self-Awareness

August 23, 2025 by Aisha Wilson

Presented by God’s Best Family
📅 Saturday, August 23rd, 2025
🕐 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM
📍 Marriott | 1743 W. Nursery Road, Linthicum Heights, MD 21090

Dive into an afternoon of fun, reflection, and connection with God’s Best Family!

We’re kicking things off with a Chat N’ Chew Session where teens and families will explore self-awareness—the ability to understand your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and values. Through open conversation and shared stories, participants will gain tools to grow in confidence and self-discovery.

After our Chat N’ Chew, we’ll head to the pool for swim time, games, and relaxation—a chance to bond, laugh, and celebrate the summer together.

This uplifting event is designed to encourage both personal growth and community connection. Whether you come for the conversation, the swimming, or both—you’ll leave refreshed in mind and spirit.
