Walk For Freedom 2010
September 18th
Robert Burnaby Park
Imagine…not only having what it takes to overcome incredible adversity but to also go the extra mile and give back what you got and more to help others!
Talitha Koum House is a non-profit society that has created and maintains a spiritual house of healing for women. Going into their 10th year, TK was founded by Starr Peardon. It is her way of giving back to women, just like she was, torn apart from abuse and addiction on probation or parole or serving conditional sentences. Starr worked her way back from these depths to not only become a solid contributing member of society in the Lower Mainland but also created a program with 3 homes that achieve phenomenal success helping women reintegrate into society, back to school, work or both as productive citizens. Starr’s special ability to connect with these women and as founder of TK earned her a 2010 Courage to Come Back Award sponsored by the Coast Mental Health Foundation.
