In one week, Kristy and Kasey managed to raise $200,000 for My Sister's House.

To this day, the sisters continue to receive generous contributions from people who want to help. Recently, someone donated an 18-wheeler full of items for the shelter.

LaQuesha Agnew works at My Sister's House and says that the shelter is getting so many donations that they've run out of storage! "It's just overwhelming," she says.

My Sister's House plans to distribute the donated items to deserving mothers, and use the money to improve counseling services, Lequesha says.
