Everyone has people in their lives they hold dear – people who have been lovingly supportive and provided a place to feel safe. In the case of a select group of broken and hurting girls, Syringa House in Nampa fills that role. The compassionate and giving staff provides that loving support every girl needs. The beautiful home that was completed three years ago due to the generosity of our community is the place where they can feel safe. Within the devoted and caring environment of Syringa House, these girls are able to learn how to be a healthy, positive part of the society around them.
Our community has continued to make a tremendous impact in the lives of these girls through an incredible spirit of generosity. This year, we honored the wonderful people who have opened their hearts and lives to us at our annual Lawn Party on Tuesday, August 10th.
We want to express our immense gratitude to these wonderful businesses and individuals who have worked tirelessly to continue the work of rising up this next generation.
