Past Projects

Intentional Legacy came alongside a family during change of employment

The funds for this project helped Anna buy a van for her family!

Emma has chosen to live in Honduras for a few months to accomplish two things. Her passion is to show people how they should be loved through spreading the word of GOD. The second reason is because she wants to truly learn the Spanish language through immersion into the culture. She is doing this on her own versus through an organization because it significantly reduces expenses and she can be certain that funds raised can be used to buy the actual supplies the students/school she is serving needs.

Founder, Sheila McPhilamy is a professional private investigator who has pursued justice for her clients whether it is child abuse, missing persons, assaults or murders since 2008. She has seen firsthand the unimaginable heartbreak for some families who have absolutely no option to pursue justice or closure. Serving to Protect allows her to provide her services for these families.

Our first official Intentional Legacy project ever was delivering 100 snack-filled “finals goodie bags” for students in an under-served school in Milledgeville, GA. Each bag contained a handwritten note of encouragement as well.

Intentional Legacy helped Sharon live out her Intentional Legacy in Haiti!

Intentional Legacy was able to come alongside a family at risk for losing their house due to underemployment after their 25 year career became obsolete due to technology advances. The boost allowed them to catch their breath and gave them time to work with the bank as they readjusted to the financial setback.

A family moved into a home and the septic system had an epic failure with a price tag that was overwhelming for a family where both of the parents are committed teachers and community service champions.

We were able to support a young woman who hiked the entire Appalachian Trail and is developing an organization to help women with PTSD learn and heal through nature.

Intentional Legacy raised funds to support a local private adoption.

Intentional Legacy helped support Elizabeth as she lived out her Intentional Legacy in Zambia!

ntentional Legacy helped support Jordan as she lived out her intentional legacy serving the Tucker Family in Granvide, Haiti.

These beautiful cards made by Lussna were for sale in our store. She began making these cards while living in Zambia. She has moved to multiple countries in her life and recently relocated to Germany. Lussna loves to create with the purpose of giving to others. These cards are made with chitenge fabric from the Zambian culture and shweshwe fabric from the South African Culture.

A dear friend & long time supporter of Intentional Legacy projects came along side a single mom (RB) who escaped a dangerous and physically abusive relationship. Through hard work she has been able to move her precious little family from homelessness into an apartment, but had to walk several miles to work, sometimes even at night. We are thankful to everyone who donated to provide a car for RB and her boys!! In her words, "My faith in Jesus Christ has always been the light in showing me the way."

Intentional Legacy was able to be a part of surprising a family with a reliable car.

This family tirelessly serves the community, cares for special needs child, works extremely hard and always has an encouraging word for others.

We were blown away by all the community support.

Thank you to all who donated!

A friend of Intentional Legacy received a diagnosis recently that impacts every area of their lives. We have chosen to be intentional for Deanna Sellers. Many others chose, and are continuing to choose, to be intentional #forDeannaSellers as well. All proceeds from our store from May to September 1, 2021 went towards her medical costs. We can't help everyone - but we could do our part in loving her. She has been kind and generous to Intentional Legacy and to many, many, many others in the past. She serves, she loves and she gives.

Thank you to all who purchased items from the store, donated, made meals, and shared our posts. And a huge thank you to all who are continuing to pray for Deanna and her family.

Intentional Legacy raised money to help a high school teacher buy books for his classroom. This school, located in a very rural part of the Delta of Mississippi, had only one book per classroom and the teacher had to make copies for each student. The desire was for each student to have their own books. In addition, these books will be used in the classroom for future years!!
