This house has a lot of meetings for people recovering from a variety of addictions. It is a safe space and a welcoming space but doesn't have a large donor base as most of the folks in the rooms don't even realize it is a separate entity in need of donations. With regular repairs and some needed upgrades, 12 Step House could really use your donations at this time. Thank you for considering!

Prairie STEM and 75 North are collaborating on the Omaha Area Wi-Fi Consortium. While collaborating with Omaha Public Schools (Howard Kennedy Elementary), Prairie STEM discovered a lack of infrastructure (cell towers) in North and South Omaha that is required for students to be able to utilize the LTE enabled devices the district has approved for distribution. With COVID-19 shutting down schools the inequity of infrastructure has resulted in students not being able to attend virtual school or have access to virtual medical care. Prairie STEM and 75 North are working with the following organizations to rectify the gaps in coverage and provide connectivity for all students in Omaha. - Sherwood Foundation - Facebook - OPS (Howard Kennedy) - Peter Kiewit Foundation - Southside Redevelopment Corporation The Omaha Area Wi-Fi Consortium will employ a phased approach to prioritize areas of greatest needs first. This allows for strategic deployment of resources and support to designated areas. Phase 1 will include trailer build-out for immediate deployment for Summer 2020. Phase 2 will include multiple trailers for continuous wireless coverage throughout a wider area. Phase 3 will include fixed asset build-out for long-term solutions leveraging existing and new structures (schools, street lights, buildings) that are currently connected to power and have line-of-sight proximity to high-speed networks. Phase 4 will include expansion of coverage to include adjacent neighborhoods and communities. Once phase 3 is enacted the trailers from phase 2 will become mobile STEM labs bringing science, technology, engineering and mathematics to students across the Omaha Metro area.

Seventy Five North and Prairie STEM are collaborating on the Omaha Area Wi-Fi Consortium project. A plan created to increase the connectivity of data/wifi in underserved urban areas by creating STEM trailers to extend power to those areas. This project will be implemented in phases with the goal to expand coverage to adjacent neighborhoods and communities. We are collaborating with the following organizations: - Sherwood Foundation - Facebook - OPS (Howard Kennedy Elementary) - Peter Kiewit Foundation - Southside Redevelopment Corporation With COVID-19 impacting all aspects of our community, the unprecedented time has highlighted the need and lack for access to technology. As you know, OPS students will be receiving LTE enabled devices in the fall. Prairie STEM has found while collaborating with Omaha Public Schools (Howard Kennedy Elementary), a lack of infrastructure (cell towers) in East Omaha that is required for students to access the LTE enabled devices. This project will not only affect our students, but it will also allow an adequate source for others that depend on internet access for: education, social services, Telehealth and more. We'd love for you to join us in closing the gap in the digital divide and providing connectivity for our community and others. Omaha Area Wi-Fi Consortium Phases Plan: The Omaha Area Wi-Fi Consortium is a plan to extend the power of data/wifi to neighborhoods where connections are inadequate. Along with our partners we will employ a phased approach to prioritize areas of greatest needs first. This allows for the strategic deployment of resources and support to designated areas with the most need. Phase 1 will include trailer build-out for immediate deployment for Summer 2020. Phase 2 will include multiple trailers for continuous wireless coverage throughout a wider area. Phase 3 will include fixed asset build-out for long-term solutions leveraging existing and new structures (schools, street lights, buildings) that are currently connected to power and have line-of-sight proximity to high-speed networks. Phase 4 will include the expansion of coverage to include adjacent neighborhoods and communities.

Hi Everyone, This is Fr. Michael. Thank you for helping Ablaze Celebrate Omaha Gives today. As people experience the transforming power of the Holy Spirit they invest in the transformation of other people and on and on... generation after generation... When God called me into the priesthood, He asked me to give things up. I gave up the good of marriage, having my own children, money, my own home, engineering and more in order to serve him as a priest. At the moment, this was a little scary for me, but I must say that I truly love being a priest. I trusted Jesus' calling on my life and I started seminary. Now, over 10 years later, I love being a priest and I'm so excited to work for God in helping him to set souls Ablaze! This is why the ministry of Ablaze exists! Personally, I don't have the financial resources to complete the assignment that God has given to me for Ablaze. But, I know people who have been financially blessed by God. God will always invite us to trust in His Plan and Invest in His Plan. You are an important part of helping God accomplish the mission he has given Ablaze. Will you partner with God and I as we work together to set souls Ablaze? What is your giving going to help Ablaze accomplish? (Goto our website www.ablazeworship.org and check out our Building Project) 1.) A full-size grotto of our Lady of Lourdes. Maybe God has blessed you to be able to donate for the building of this beautiful grotto in honor of our Blessed Mother. Here, Ablaze will lead families in prayer, praise and worship under the stars. 2.) Your giving will help fund our building of the Ablaze House of Prayer & Ministry Equipping Center where many people, young and old, will receive healing and growth in the Holy Spirit. You will be helping people of all ages to be empowered by the Holy Spirit, commissioned and sent out by the Lord to make disciples. 3.) Your giving will help fund the building of our Ablaze hermitages (prayer cottages) where people will have special one on one time with the Lord. Ablaze seeks to help people to enter into silence and solitude for the development of their interior life. 4.) Your giving will help fund the Ablaze Emmaus path which will have the stations of the cross along with beautiful places for people to stop and reflect with the Holy Spirit. God Bless you and thank you in advance for your giving hearts! In Christ, Fr. Michael * If you'd like to inquire about giving to any of these project please feel free to contact me personally 402-301-3226. I am excited to partner with JESUS and I invite you to partner with Jesus in supporting the Mission God has entrusted to Ablaze. Please remember Ablaze as a part of your charitable giving on Wed. May 20th for Omaha Gives!
