home.She<\/a> gives sacrificially to so many.”<\/p>\nC.J. Stroud and content creator Zachery Dereniowski visited Scott-Jones at her home to personally let her know that she was getting the home furniture makeover.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve loved hearing Ashly\u2019s story. She\u2019s made a big impact on so many individuals and families around her,\u201d C.J. Stroud said. \u201cI am grateful for the opportunity to partner with Ashley to serve the people who make Houston so special.\u201d<\/p>\n
Scott-Jones was selected through a panel made up of Stroud, Dereniowski and Ashley representatives.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s always a privilege to use my platform to serve others,\u201d Dereniowski said. \u201cEveryone deserves a comfortable place to call home, and this initiative is helping make that possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
Now, Scott-Jones and her husband, Derrick, can enjoy the comforts of their new furniture.<\/p>\n
\u201cI became a first-time homeowner last month, and while it\u2019s a major milestone, it can also be overwhelming,\u201d Scott-Jones said. \u201cThis experience has changed our lives, and I can\u2019t thank Ashley enough for bringing this program to our community.\u201d<\/p>\n
In addition to Scott-Jones winning the grand prize, five runner-ups received Texans merchandise, tickets to a home game and $500 in Ashley store credit.<\/p>\n
Ashley is donating an additional $50,000 to help other Houston families and organizations, including Mission of Yahweh, the Women\u2019s Home and Finishing Touch.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m so grateful to Ashley,\u201d Kimberly Stroud said. \u201cI can\u2019t even begin to describe the gratitude that we have as a foundation for the generosity that they have just to reach back out to C.J.\u2019s foundation and give $50,000 worth of furniture. I mean, that\u2019s unheard of, That\u2019s probably the most generous donation that we\u2019ve received so far. We\u2019re able to help three amazing organizations. Mission of Yahweh takes homeless women and children in, and not only do they help them rebuild their lives,they help them rebuild their self-esteem, their self-worth. It\u2019s just amazing work. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe other organization is the Women\u2019s Home. This is an organization that helps with women that are getting back on their feet after drug and alcohol abuse. Some of them are just coming out of domestic violence situations. And so they help them get on their feet. They also provide low-income housing for families that have suffered eviction or different things like that. We are also giving some of this blessing to Finishing Touch. And what they do is they take low-income families and they sit and consult with them and figure out what do they need in their home.”<\/p>\n
The Texans are riding a five-game winning streak punctuated by a big win Sunday night against the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium. From an 0-3 start, the defending AFC South champions are now 8-5 and competing for a spot in the playoffs. <\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s such a huge win,\u201d Kimberly Stroud said. \u201cAnd one thing I love about our team is that they are a brotherhood. Over the last couple years, I\u2019ve been really praying that we would feel that and I feel it. Even just seeing them hug each other after plays and pumping each other up, it\u2019s pretty amazing to see. And I think that\u2019s when you see greatness come to life is when hey play together as a team. And that\u2019s what we\u2019re seeing. So it\u2019s pretty amazing, pretty exciting.”<\/p>\n
