EIGHTY-SEVEN NEW LIFE, INC. is named in honor of Stacy Rock, the mother of our founder, Michael Rock. The name commemorates the year Michael was born—1987—and reflects the strength, perseverance, and deep love Stacy has embodied throughout her life.

​

Stacy faced immense hardships before Michael’s birth but remained steadfast in her belief in the importance of community and family. She longed to create a life for her children that was shaped by the ideals of love, unity, and support

.

Though her journey was filled with adversity, Stacy’s aspirations for a better future blossomed through the birth of her son. Her legacy is one of resilience, hope, and a steadfast desire to build a family that exemplified these principles.

​

As an adult, Michael founded EIGHTY-SEVEN NEW LIFE, INC. to honor his mother’s vision and amplify her belief in the power of community. Through this organization, WE are committed to creating lasting change by fostering unity, support, and compassion for those facing struggles similar to those Stacy experienced. Our work reflects the love and ideals she cherished, continuing her legacy of hope for future generations.
