Little Abode for Children - Chapter 3

 


The Gala

The gala was for raising funds for building up a shelter for the street children. Kenosha did not yet have any.

City’s older generation had always been generous to these children. They used to take these children for fostering. One among the foster parents was Mrs. Kirk.

Mrs. Kirk used to teach History at Kenosha Middle School. She retired a few years ago. A year ago, she suffered from her first heart attack. It shook her thoughts about the children she used to look after. Since then she started thinking of building a home for street kids. After all, these children could never be sent back. She expressed this concern of her to her friends at Kenosha Knitting Circle. 

Mrs. Mary Munro was in the circle. She was Teressa’s grand aunt. She knew about Teressa’s involvement and effort with the children. She shared, “My grandniece, Teressa, runs a center for the street kids. Off course with help and support from her friends and family. She, too, needs an expansion. Can we talk to her?”

Hence, Teressa with Kenosha Knitting Circle arranged a fundraiser event for expansion of Little Abode for Children. The library supported the event by hosting the gala on the first floor of the library building.

The gala appeared to be quite a success. It helped gather a million dollar in contribution. Kenosha Undergarment Factory, a leading global manufacturer of underwear, donated one of their abandoned warehouses to build a kitchen and shelter for rescued street children.

Nathan scribbled a question in his notebook, “Who’d be against such benevolent endeavors and enthusiasts?”
