Bloom for Women

06/03/2026

💙 Congratulations to Bloom CEO Carol Stoutland Andersen on being presented with the 2026 Gateway to Equity Award by the AAUW-PA 💙

This meaningful award recognizes individuals, groups, and organizations that have advanced equity for women and girls through advocacy, education, philanthropy, or research.

Through Carol’s leadership and the work of Bloom, countless survivors of s*x trafficking and exploitation have found sanctuary, healing, empowerment, and opportunities for a brighter future. This recognition reflects not only Carol’s unwavering dedication, but also the collective impact of Bloom’s mission and community.

We are honored to celebrate this well-deserved recognition and grateful for all those who continue to support Bloom’s work to create pathways of hope and healing for survivors.

💙 Help Support Mothers & Babies at Bloom 💙

As we continue welcoming more expecting mothers and new moms into Bloom’s Mom & Baby program, we are currently in need of cribs and changing tables to help create safe, comfortable spaces for the families we serve.

If you have a crib or changing table you would be willing to donate — or know someone who may be able to help — please reach out to us.

Thank you for supporting the mothers and babies in our Bloom community. 💙

💙 Housing Connections Needed for a Bloom Graduate & Her Children 💙

We’re asking our community for help as one of our Bloom graduates and her two children continue searching for a safe, stable, and affordable 3-bedroom apartment in the Lehigh Valley.

Her housing budget has increased to approximately $1,800/month, but affordable family housing remains difficult to find. A safe place to call home is such an important part of continued healing, stability, and independence.

Do you know a landlord, property manager, realtor, or someone with housing connections who may be able to help? Even sharing a connection or lead could make a meaningful difference for this family.

📧 [email protected]

Please consider sharing this post to help us expand our network and find a safe home for this family. 💙

🏃‍♂️💙 Rise and Run for Bloom 💙🏃‍♂️

Before most of us were even awake this morning, an incredible group of students from Academy were already on the move — running with purpose to support survivors served by Bloom for Women.

Through their Rise and Run event, these inspiring young leaders raised an amazing $2,500 to help support healing, hope, and opportunity for survivors of trafficking and exploitation. 👟✨

We are so grateful for their compassion, dedication, and commitment to making a difference in our community.

💜 If you’d still like to support their fundraiser, donations can be made here:
