This past Tuesday, the Rotary Club of Edmonton Whyte Avenue was joined by Karen Mottershead, Executive Director of the Terra Centre. Terra is a non-profit organization that provides supports and services that empower teen parents to succeed. Karen shared with us about the work that Terra does, such as partnering with Edmonton Public Schools at Braemar School for more than 20 years to support student parents completing their high school diploma. Through multiple on-site services, students can concentrate on both their studies and their new role as a parent.
Karen also shared how Terra is coping with COVID and how they are trying an online improv fundraiser called Laughs over Lunch. Sounds like a great way to support Terra and have some fun!
