Imagine loosing a loved one to a violent crime and not being prepared for the onslaught of things you have to take care of to bury your loved one, to take care of your family, to begin to heal. There is now a place to find these resources in one location.
Through the tragedy suffered by Vickie Walker and her family on February 12, 2007 a wonderful resource was born a non-profit organization called Circle the Wagons, which helps put victims in contact with local resources from help with healing, funeral cost and more.
Vickie Walker was our guest speaker during the August Jordan Area Women in Business lunch. Her story of how she brought joy back to her life after such horrible tragedy left many of us teary eyed during lunch today.
To see her August 18th, 2010 interview on Fox 13 news click here
The Circle the Wagons foundation is currently a local Utah resource, however they are working to make it a national foundation as it can be surely used in other places were victims need support.
Please visit Circle the Wagons.org for more information or how to support their organization.
I am told that $20.00 will purchase three Cans of Comfort gifts, please spread the word about Circle the Wagons
Thanks for reading
