LoadingOur story
Stillby started with an uncomfortable question. When a child's housing falls apart, why does almost every adult who knows them disappear too? We're a small team building the answer, one relationship at a time.
Why now
More children in our county are sharing one home, a garage, a motel, or a friend's couch than at any point on record. Each move can mean a new school, a new caseworker, and a new adult who knows none of their history.
[Local context for the founders to confirm: the recent gap in services or funding that makes this urgent now.] What stays constant is the gap itself. We exist to close it.
The team
A small team, on purpose. Stillby is built to prove a standard of care, not to become a large institution.

[Founding paragraph, in the founder's own voice. The moment Stillby became real: one child, one move, the day it became clear that someone had to be the one who stays. This is the most-read paragraph on the site. Keep it plain and true.]
What we hold to
Not the building, not the zip code, not the rolls. The child is the thread, and we hold it.
We say what's proven and what's still a promise. We'd rather under-claim than oversell a child's life.
No pity, no spectacle. A family in a hard season is still a family with a future.
Our goal is a standard so clear that schools and counties adopt it, and then we step back.
Stillby gives through a 501(c)(3) fiscal sponsor. [Fiscal sponsor legal name and EIN to be added.] We account for every dollar, and we'll show you what it did.
