Scheels hosts heartwarming shopping spree for moms rebuilding their lives
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) -- Time for a holiday scene that is Absolutely Colorado. Scheels held a private, before-hours shopping spree for 18 very deserving women.
Moms who are currently rebuilding their lives through Mary’s Home, a program for those who have experienced homelessness, trauma, and instability, were able to browse and shop for 30 children in a setting that brought them joy and a sense of normalcy for the holidays.
"Seeing that joy in a mom's eyes...seeing a mom, you know, walk through a lot of struggles and then get a moment to just enjoy the season, it brings...a smile to my heart...it drives me to do this work," says Dominique Knowles, program director of Dream Center's Mary's Home program.
