As we get this blog thing rolling, I thought you might be at least a little bit interested in who is writing this. Well, I’m Melissa Houck, the Director of Fund Development here at Monroe Harding. From my title, you can probably guess that this blog might end up having a fund raising slant to it. I hope as a general rule that it doesn’t. Of course yes, you will hear all about our great events - what they are, when they’re coming up, how to register and then how they went.
What’s Included
Besides fund raising activities, you should find a lot more here. I plan to include stories about many of our youth. Not only our residents, but also those involved with Youth Connections after they age out of custody and even those in the Project SHARE program and the collaborative effort with other agencies.
You’ll hear about what is going on with our property and our building plans. I’ll post some facts and figures concerning the demographics that we work with. You’ll learn more about foster care and what’s happening in TN concerning young people. We’ll have guest bloggers including some youth, our CEO, other staff members and volunteers.
Some days, you might just find we want to talk about the weather or the traffic. But regardless of what we might want to write about, you can redirect us. Let us know what you want to see.
Have a great week.
