Empower House Ministries, an organization helping women battling addictions, has received a six-figure grant for its work.
Empower House Director Melissa Landis says the organization has received a $100,000 grant from the Sunderland Foundation as the agency gets established. Landis says this will help with facility renovations.
Empower House offers a faith-based approach to give female addicts stability and temporary housing as they work on their recoveries for the long term. The agency also teaches essential life skills like budgeting, job searching, cooking, personal health, relationships and self-identity.
