Detailed description
For 28 children, The Haven Shelter is "Home when there is no home". More than a shelter, The Haven strives to create sustainable families through intensive programming and case management services. Although many of The Haven's parents benefit with courses on stress management an, it's been more difficult to provide stress relief for their children. Thanks to members of our Spartan West Rotary Club The Haven opened its new playroom on Apr. 13, The result of 200+ volunteers hours and over $ 2,000, the room is a testament to the care of Spartanburg's community. Completed in memory of Ed Froman (a 20 year Rotarian and President) the playroom was made possible by Froman's family and friends donations. Local journalists were invited to see the hard work of Rotary Club of Spartan West. The project truly exemplifies Rotary's motto "Service above Self". A big thanks goes to partners The Home Depot, Wal-Mart, Costco who also made donations to this project.
