About Us
A partner with Springfield Victory Mission, Sammy's Window is a not-for-profit organization, whose purpose is to help foster children enter the foster system with some sense of dignity, and assist foster parents with the transition.
What We Do
Our aim is to establish and maintain a clothing and supply bank for foster families so they don't have to scramble for these items with very little notice. Many children who enter the foster care system do so with the bare minimum and we want to provide them with as much necessities as possible.
Our desire is to present each child with a new canvas bag containing various important items as soon as he/she is removed from his/her home. In this bag are basic hygiene products, underwear, socks, a toy/book, as well as vouchers that the foster parents can use to secure other items for the child.
How to Help
- Contribute financially by sending a check to PO Box 2884, Springfield, MO 65801 (make checks payable to "Sammy's Window") or donating online here.
- Give new or gently used children's clothing, shoes & socks, underwear, hygiene products, toys, books, etc.

12/12 Program |

About the Program
It is a faith-based 12-step program based on Galatians 5:1: “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm then, and do not let yourselves be burden again by the yoke of slavery.”
12/12 is not a treatment program, but an alternative solution for those who are willing to choose a better way of life based on Christian values.
- Steps 1, 2 & 3: Make peace with God
- Steps 4, 5, 6 & 7: Make peace with ourselves
- Steps 8 & 9: Make peace with others
- Steps 10 & 11: Maintain peace with God, ourselves and others
- Step 12: Share peace with others who are searching
Who the Program is For
It is for men who are seeking to overcome substance dependence or abuse in a structured, therapeutic environment that offers life skills, stability, spirituality and recovery.
Program Structure
The 12-week program starts off with a Scripture-based orientation, followed by exploration of the 12 steps toward recovery and freedom through Christ. Throughout the program, students are encouraged to attend church and Bible studies. They are also offered several life skills classes, such as anger management, communications, conflict resolution and personal finance.
Program Benefits
Knowing how and why you do the things you do under the influence of drugs and alcohol is very important, and provides a solution for true recovery. An addict or alcoholic cannot fully experience God and submit to His will unless he has truly surrendered. 12/12 will help you break free from the bondages that have plagued your life and achieve victory so you can become a productive member of society.
