Reflections on September 11, 2011

Open letter from our CEO and Founder, Parthenia Warford, US Army Retired

Some don't know that 14yrs ago today, I almost lost my life in the Pentagon on 9/11. I was getting my retirement physical from the Army at Ft Myer (a rock throw from the Pentagon) if the lab tech not been late for work, I would have been in the office where the plane hit the Pentagon and killed my mentor and many more. So today, I ask that you pray for everyone that life was changed, especially our Country's Military Widow families.
Later today I'm going to create a video on Periscope discussing 9/11, my PTSD, and major depression.

End of 2014 Fundraising Effort

End of 2014 Fundraising Effort

We are seeking End of 2014 donations to help fund our Project Impact Scholar and BeautyBrainsBelief™ Mentoring Programs as well as annual BeautyBrainsBelief™ Mentoring Conference.

Our CEO and Founder, Parthenia Warford has funded 98% of all activities since being founded in 2009 using her limited permanent disability income. She has often done without herself including almost losing her home to ensure single mother families were taken care of.  Parthenia suffers from severe rheumatoid arthritis, degenerative disc disease, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, chronic pain, anemia, and major depression to name a few chronic diseases; yet she always puts single mother families in her forefront ensuring they needs are met above her own.

We have two amazing programs: Project Impact Scholars and BeautyBrainsBelief™ Mentoring Program that have a critical need of funding so we can provide eligible single mothers enrolled in nursing program $250 semester for textbooks and provide Free mentoring services to single mother families; as well as our annual BeautyBrainsBelief™ Mentoring Conference. 

Parthenia Warford is the point of contact fundraising for The Warford Foundation, Inc., parthenia@thewarfordfoundation.org

GivingTuesday - DONATE TO The Warford Foundation, Inc

Dear Friends,

TODAY IS THE DAY YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

A few years ago the United Nations started a movement to focus on giving to and serving the community. GIVING TUESDAY was born!

The hope is that we will take a moment to donate our time, expertise and money to causes that help others.

So today please consider giving to or donating your time to a local organization. We would love for you to make a tax deductible contribution to The Warford Foundation, Inc ( www.thewarfordfoundation.org/contribute )

But what is most important is that you simply make the effort to support someone in need.

Warm regards,
