SFN has made charitable donations to Women Aware a couple times in the past several years – they’re doing great things for women in Siouxland. You can visit their website at http://www.womenawarescia.org/index.htm - there’s more race information there too (at the bottom of the ‘Services’ page)!
An excerpt from the Women Aware website:
When a problem arises in our life, everyone around us feels the ripple of its effect. However, for every negative reaction there can be a positive reaction. Women Aware provides a variety of services and support to meet a great number of challenges.
