Projects Supported by Rock for a Cause
One example of the JLW’s programs is Project Fresh Start, a program founded in 1997 to assist families as they leave local community shelters. Typically this program helps families with young children who have become homeless due to domestic violence, employment loss and/or other economic hardships. For the past ten years, the Junior League of Worcester has given more than 160 families and 450 individuals a fresh start in their new homes through Project Fresh Start. The JLW provides the most basic needs, such as pillows, linens, towels, dishes, pans, silverware, cookware and additional household items as these families transition from a shelter to permanent housing.
Another example of a JLW—sponsored project is the The Coats for Kids program, which provides children who attend the Worcester Public Schools (WPS) with the necessary winter outerwear to enable them to come to school each day ready to learn. Together, WPS and JLW provided over 1,400 children with new coats, hats and mittens. |
