Thank you for your support this year!

As we think about ending 2024 and moving into 2025, Women’s Medical Respite wants to thank each and every person or organization that supported us this year. We accomplished major milestones such as moving into our own house that doubled our capacity and being able to pay off the mortgage in the same year. This would not have been possible without the Jeanette L. Musgrave Foundation and Community Foundation of the Ozarks for the $172,000 grant towards the mortgage in addition to another $10,000 under the Jerry Redfern Grant.

Thank you to our staff that continue to display a deep commitment to our mission and the women we serve, the Missouri State Service Learning students for spending their evenings with our ladies, everyone who donated meals to supplement food costs, and everyone not mentioned but appreciated. We are excited for 2025 as we set new goals and continue to grow our organization!

Can you imagine…?

Having survived a brutal beating and abdominal surgery to repair ruptured intestines, Ginny was discharged from the hospital and needed a safe place to land and recover. Women’s Medical Respite stepped in to help.

During her first stay at WMR in October 2019, Ginny then found a tender lump in her breast. Staff immediately arranged for her to undergo a biopsy at the Breast Center.
