“There’s no Place Like Home”
On Saturday, Oct. 9, 2021, in a show of support for Solve Maternity Homes, a group of Women’s Club members hosted a table at the Solve Fundraising Gala held at the Hyatt Regency in Sarasota. The theme of the Gala, “There’s no Place Like Home” aptly describes the security, love, and structure of the safe home environment provided by solve Maternity Homes.
21 L-R: Kathleen Cleveland, LWRWC Treasurer, Peggy Kerwin, Solve CEO, Monika Templeman, LWRWC Publicity Chair, and LWRWC Members, Carleen Fuiks, Karen Scollick, and Irene Shatz.
According to Solve Executive Director, Peggy Kerwin, “When you provide support for a woman at Solve, it changes not only her life, but the life of her child, her family and her entire community. Investment in her creates a positive ripple effect of life improvement for generations to come.”
With the support of the community, Solve helps end the cycle of emotional, physical, and spiritual poverty by providing counseling, educational and employment opportunities and life skills training as the women prepare for motherhood. Solve is helping to end cycles of abuse and unhealthy beliefs, two lives at a time.
Solve recently added the Evolve program for new mothers pursuing a higher education. The Evolve program is taking the mission of Solve to a new level and LWRWC Women’s Club is proud to have made a financial gift to Solve to sponsor the Educational Center in the new Evolve Home.
