LM Team 1 - One Dream M1A

Fundraiser Cause: Picture a mother and her child at Lotus House, the largest women’s shelter in the country. Most of their day happens indoors, inside routines built around survival. But for a few hours, they step outside into a garden. She kneels beside her daughter in the dirt and they plant a seed together. Later, they’ll harvest it and carry it to a kitchen that turns it into a meal they helped grow.

That moment is what Nourish to Flourish is about.

Lotus House shelters over 1,550 women, youth, and children every year, helping families rebuild after homelessness, domestic violence, and trauma. Nourish to Flourish will bring new life to the Farm Pavilion and outdoor gardens there, adding raised beds, hands-on learning stations, and shaded spaces to rest and gather.

The farm won’t feed the shelter on its own. But it will teach, it will supplement, and it will give mothers and children open sky, soil under their hands, and time spent together.

Our goal is to raise $25,000 to make this space real. Every gift helps a family feel, for a few hours, like they belong somewhere beautiful.

Let’s grow something meaningful together.
