We love you, Mimi
Mimi Scholl, one of our most loving and long-time volunteers, went to her own forever home on August 29, after a brief hospitalization. Mimi threw her heart and soul into helping Holy Ground and our clients, especially our littlest ones. Above, she plays joyfully at our annual picnic with a small member of our Holy Ground family.
Mimi’s family, which includes her sister, Joan Anderson, another of our loyal and long-time volunteers, asks that donations in Mimi’s memory be made to Holy Ground Shelter for Homeless, Inc.,
200 W 20th St, Riviera Beach FL 33404.

Macy’s Shop for a Cause event in 2012.
Thank you, Mimi, for the love you gave to our Holy Ground family. Although we miss you, the joy you brought us
remains in our hearts.
Holy Ground enjoyed another successful Shop for a Cause day, thanks to Macy’s and to all who staffed our table there, all who sold or bought Savings Passes, and all who shopped for Holy Ground’s cause on August 27! We’re already looking forward to next year!
Thank you to the Rotary Club…
…for blessing Holy Ground with $1000! Here are Jan and Phyllis at the August meeting of the Palm Beach Flagler Rotary Club, along with representatives from the Rotary Club and from the other charities who were also awarded gifts: the Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County and Little Smiles. Many thanks!

Why we so strongly believe in Holy Ground Shelter’s long-term, independent living model:
This 5-minute video depicts a theory of change from the Frontiers of Innovation community for achieving breakthrough outcomes for vulnerable children and families. It describes the need to focus on building the capabilities of caregivers and strengthening the communities that together form the environment of relationships essential to children’s lifelong learning, health, and behavior.
