Easter 2021 with RotaryHPH and WIN
Women In Need (WIN) have three safe houses for families throughout Hawaii and in their community, there are about 25 children of varying ages. At The Rotary Club of Hickam Pearl Harbor (RotaryHPH), we wanted to share the joy of the Easter Holiday with these kids so we prepared 25 Easter baskets filled with candy, snacks, coloring books and toys. On top of that, we provided plastic eggs, stickers, and extra candy so they could have their own Easter egg hunt. RotaryHPH's Community Service Chair Kim C. met with Monique from WIN and some of the women and children to accept our donations with smiling faces and gratitude.
Women In Need (WIN) is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization that empowers women who have been through domestic violence, homelessness, substance abuse, and incarceration.
WIN is committed to guiding women and teens towards sobriety, self-esteem and responsibility through our warm, nurturing and holistic approach.
We help our clients develop positive life skills they need to become independent and productive members of our community. We do everything we can to break the generational cycle of hopelessness and abuse.
Our founder, Mary Scott-Lau continues to teach and counsels women who are currently incarcerated at the Women's Community Correctional Center in Kailua. Families and individuals who turn to WIN for assistance become a part of our family. We are proud to have some of our former clients be part of our WIN staff, as well as continue to volunteer in our community to help give back.
We currently have two offices; our main office is located in Aiea, Oahu and our second is in Lihue, Kauai. We hope to expand to the other islands to help service more women in need.
