This is our story.

YELLOW HOUSE exists because of a burden that began by simply trying to help our community and do the right thing for one single mom, right here in Memphis. Through a series of events, we were able to see this mom’s reality and the insurmountable odds often facing single moms in trying to provide for their families. Michael Baier and the team at BELIEVING CHURCH began working and dreaming what it might take to provide quality affordable housing for single moms.

With years of expereince meeting tangible needs connected to food insecurities, practical training and the connecting of resources, we believed we were the right people to run towards this problem.

A few years were spent quietly fundraising, refining the vision and building the team. The first YELLOW HOUSE came to be through a generous donation from the Junior League of Memphis. This single donation launched the reality that is quality affordable housing for single moms.

Now, we’re on a quest to multiply that seed by purchasing houses, connecting with participant families and providing stability for kids through quality affordable houses.
