What an absolutely beautiful past Saturday at the Center for Women and Children!

We were blessed by the incredible team from Publix Charities, who showed up with open hearts, willing hands, and a spirit of service that truly transformed our campus.

From the moment they arrived, their energy filled the space. They repainted our walls with fresh, uplifting color that brings new life into our building. They assembled our shed — a project we’ve been eager to complete — giving us a sturdy, organized space that will support our daily operations. And outside, they created stunning landscaping that immediately changed the atmosphere of our grounds.

Flowers, fresh mulch, clean edges, thoughtful details — every touch made our center feel more welcoming, peaceful, and full of hope.

Their dedication, teamwork, and kindness were felt in every corner of our campus today. It wasn’t just about paint, tools, or plants — it was about love in action. It was about showing our women and children that they are valued, supported, and surrounded by a community that cares deeply.

Publix Charities Publix , thank you for choosing to spend your Saturday with us.

Thank you for your generosity, your hard work, and the joy you brought to our families. Your impact will be felt every single day by the women and children who walk through our doors.

We are grateful beyond words.

🎉 One Year of Hope. One Year of Impact. One Community Making It Possible.

What happens when a community decides that women and children experiencing homelessness deserve more than a temporary place to stay?

Hope happens. Stability happens. Home happens.

In the first year of our Talbot House Ministries Center for Women & Children , 180 women and children found safety, nourishment, support, and a pathway forward. We provided 21,900 nights of safe housing, served 65,700 meals, and 85.9% of families completing our program achieved a positive housing outcome.

Behind every number is a mother rebuilding her life. A child sleeping safely. A family finding its way home.

And we did not do this alone.

We celebrate and thank GiveWell Community Foundation, United Way of Central Florida, Publix Charities, Polk County Sheriff’s Charities, Polk County Government, City of Winter Haven, Homeless Coalition of Polk County, our community and faith partners, volunteers, and our incredible private donors. Your generosity is transforming lives.

We estimate the Center generates $3.28 million+ in community value and public-system savings — approximately $5.46 for every $1 invested.

But the work continues every single day. Keeping these doors open takes all of us. We invite you to invest in this mission, tour the Center, meet our team, and see firsthand what your support makes possible.

At the Talbot House Ministries Center for Women & Children , our work is about more than providing a safe place for families—it is about creating opportunities for children to learn, grow, play, discover, and thrive.

Today, we celebrate Oliver Aponte, our Early Childhood Educator, and the meaningful enrichment happening every day with the little ones who call our Center home. Through developmentally appropriate learning, creative play, early literacy, social-emotional activities, and one-on-one encouragement, our children are building skills and confidence during an important season of their lives.

We are especially grateful for the grant supporting Early Childhood Education in Honor of Mabel Schaefer’s Legacy through the GiveWell Community Foundation. This investment allows us to strengthen early childhood enrichment for children experiencing homelessness while their mothers work toward stability, employment, housing, and a new beginning.

For us, breaking the cycle of homelessness also means investing in the next generation. Every book read, number learned, picture colored, milestone celebrated, and moment of encouragement plants another seed of hope.

You can be part of what is happening at the Center for Women and Children. Give, volunteer, visit, or simply help us share the story.

Thank you to the GiveWell Community Foundation for helping us ensure that even during one of the most difficult chapters in a child’s life, there is still room for learning, laughter, childhood, and HOPE. ❤️

🌟 BLESSED WITH A BEAUTIFUL SURPRISE 🌟

At the 2026 Annual Meeting & Best Places to Work Awards Breakfast, themed "For the Love of MEN... of the Workforce," a special surprise made the event unforgettable.

Sarah Aune, a dedicated mother and valued member of the community, was presented with a vehicle that will help provide reliable transportation and new opportunities for the future.

This incredible gift represents more than a vehicle.
It represents:
✨ Hope�✨ Opportunity�✨ Independence�✨ Community Support�✨ A Brighter Future

The generosity shown through this event demonstrates the power of people coming together to change lives in meaningful ways.

The "For the Love of MEN... of the Workforce" event celebrates individuals who make a difference by creating opportunities and strengthening the community.

Sarah's story is a reminder that even one act of kindness can have a lasting impact.

THANK YOU CareerSource Polk!

✂️ Back-to-School Blessings at the Center for Women & Children! 🎒❤️

A huge KUDOS and heartfelt thank you to Jairus from the Barber Skate Shop for taking the time to give FREE back-to-school haircuts to the children and youth here at the center!

Something as simple as a fresh haircut can give a child a boost of confidence, dignity, and excitement as they walk into a new school year. Jairus didn’t just provide haircuts—he showed our children that their community sees them, values them, and is cheering them on. 💙

This is what our Circle of Friends is all about: people using their time, talents, and resources to make a meaningful difference in the lives of women and children working toward a brighter future.

Will you join the circle? There are so many ways—big and small—to share your gifts and become part of their journey. Together, we can remind every family who walks through our doors that they are surrounded by a community that cares.

Thank you, Barber Skate Shop, for putting faith and kindness into action! 🙏✂️🎒
