‘Lovelifemusic’ plans Haven House fundraiser
Finding new ideas for fundraisers to benefit the Homer Haven House might not seem like such an easy task to set about tackling each year, but for local musician Shawn Zuke, the work of the shelter suggests many themes.
“Healing women and children is really important to the human process of the planet,” Zuke said. “That’s a theme I think it’s good to focus on. If we heal the women, we heal the families. They will be able to bring up the energy of the family core. When families heal, communities heal.”
Haven House serves women and children not only as a shelter, but also assisting in other ways to help them reach stability aft
