Lotus House operates the nation’s largest shelter for women and children experiencing homelessness. Kloss has volunteered with Lotus House for more than five years prior to joining the board.
The $1 million pledge will support the Children’s Village, including its complimentary Clothing Boutique and Toy Room. The Children’s Village is a 71,000-square-foot education and resource center located adjacent to Lotus Village shelter in Miami’s Overtown neighborhood.
“Every child deserves a safe, inspiring place to learn, grow, and dream. I am honored to support Lotus House and the Children’s Village as they create meaningful pathways to opportunity and hope for families in the Overtown community and beyond,” said Karlie Kloss, member of the Board of Directors of Lotus Endowment Fund, Inc.
The Toy Room serves as a wish fulfillment center for children, while the Clothing Boutique provides new and gently used clothing at no cost to women and children entering the shelter.
“Karlie’s involvement brings not only vital resources, but also a passionate voice to our efforts. Her pledge has a direct and lasting impact on the lives of women and children served by the Children’s Village, furthering our shared vision of ending and preventing homelessness in Miami,” said Constance Collins, founder of Lotus House.
Founded in 2004, Lotus House reports that it serves more than 1,450 women, youth and children annually and has supported more than 14,500 individuals to date. The organization provides services including restorative therapies, employment assistance, life skills training, early childhood education, medical care and mental health services.
The Children’s Village brings together more than 15 nonprofit partners to provide educational programming and therapeutic services under one roof, according to the organization.
