Today, VASJ’s Christian Leadership class had the opportunity to visit Laura’s Home, a women and children’s shelter in Cleveland. They dropped off the donations that were collected during the school’s Christmas fundraiser.
Laura’s Home helps women who have lost their jobs, been in abusive relationships, and other circumstances which cause them to need assistance.
Denise Eaddy, the program director, was kind enough to show the students around the building. They were able to see the childcare center, where the children take classes and receive bible study courses. The women in the shelter are also able to take classes to learn important life skills such as managing money.
It was a great opportunity for the VASJ community to serve others in this important way.
