American Widow Project & Tuesday’s Children
Tuesday’s Children partnered with the American Widow Project, a nonprofit organization providing peer to peer support to military widows grieving the loss of a spouse in the armed forces, to host a collective retreat for 9/11 widows and military widows to empower, strengthen, and learn from one another on the weekend preceding the anniversary of September 11th. Â Seven women from Tuesday’s Children and six women from the American Widow Project participated in a fast-paced scavenger hunt through midtown with Watson Adventures, took a cooking class at TasteBuds Kitchen, and participated in a variety of healing activities facilitated by the American Widow Project. Â The program culminated at the Tuesday’s Children Roots of Resilience Gala on September 9th, during which Taryn Davis, Executive Director of the American Widow Project, was honored with a Resilience Award.
