Compassion in action
Truth. Resilience. Grace. believes compassion should move beyond words and become meaningful action.
Farah's Greatest Passions
TRUTH. RESILIENCE. GRACE. was founded by Farah Irvin-Matott. In addition to advocating for survivors of narcissistic abuse and all forms of abuse, philanthropy has always been one of Farah’s greatest passions. She believes that giving back and caring for the most vulnerable members of our community are among the most meaningful things a person can do.
The 501(c)(3) charitable organizations featured below are incredible causes that are especially close to Farah’s heart.
This space connects our community with organizations and initiatives our Founder personally believes in and supports. We have included information about each organization so you can learn more about its mission, explore volunteer opportunities, and, if you choose, give directly according to your own values and ability.
TRUTH. RESILIENCE. GRACE. does not accept donations on behalf of these organizations. For anyone who wishes to contribute, each charity’s official giving link is provided below.
Supporting animal rescue organizations and helping children and families in need are causes I have always deeply believed in. Although I support many worthy organizations, Lone Star Sanctuary for Animals and 3:11 Ministries are two charities that are especially meaningful to me.
Lone Star Sanctuary for Animals is a no-kill animal rescue located in Midland, Texas. I have personally had the honor of meeting and working with the staff and Executive Director. They are not only devoted to rescuing and caring for the most vulnerable animals in our community; they unequivocally and unconditionally love every animal entrusted to their care. Their relentless advocacy and determination to save as many animals as possible is profoundly inspiring.
3:11 Ministries is another remarkable organization serving Midland, Texas. Its unwavering dedication to the children whose families are experiencing financial hardship in our community is extraordinary. 3:11 Ministries does more than help meet a child’s essential needs. The organization works tirelessly to ensure children can fully experience the joy and dignity of childhood.
The program that touches my heart most deeply is 3:11 Ministries’s Christmas assistance program, which allows our community members to sponsor a child or an entire family in need. Sponsors are asked to provide each child with new clothing, shoes, a coat, and a blanket, along with toys and other special wishes. 3:11 Ministries then delivers the gifts to the family, thus creating a joyful and magical Christmas morning for each child.
No member or visitor of TRUTH. RESILIENCE. GRACE. is ever expected to donate, volunteer, or otherwise participate in the below causes. However, excluding a page devoted to charitable causes that mean so much to me would mean leaving out a deeply meaningful part of my TRUTH...and my heart.
All My Love,
Farah
