It’s been my dream for years to have a place {online and in the real world} where widows from our community can support each other. If there were one thing I would change about the beginning of my widow journey, it would be connecting with other widows earlier.
The sole purpose of Create Hope Foundation is to connect local widows and help them foster relationships that will make this widow road easier to walk. We held our first retreat last summer. I hoped to have another retreat this summer, but the pandemic is making that a little tricky. When we can resume retreats we will. Until then, we will be focusing on raising money to go toward the digital component of my dream for Create Hope.
My dream is to have a place online where widows can find resources that will be helpful to them and to find a safe place to connect and share with other women in their same circumstances.
