Meet Marlus Stewart
Manage episode 453693601 series 3618679
Season of Sharing Fund gave some peace of mind to retired nonprofit leader Marlus Stewart. Asking for help wasn’t supposed to be part of Stewart’s story. She was the helper. But in 2019, the unimaginable happened. Stewart’s son, her only child, died of suicide at age 50. The grief was unbearable and struggling with health issues, she "lost everything." She had been living in her car off and on for about six months when she connected with Season of Sharing through Catholic Charities. Season of Sharing Fund helped paid her deposit after she won a housing lottery in Sonoma. Now, she and her dog Mercedes Marie have a place to call home.
