Orlando, FL —- Andi Whitten, Director of the Women on a Mission to Earn Commission (WOAMTEC) Debary chapter, presented a check for $915 to Zoe Peterson, Special Events/Volunteer Coordinator of the Florida United Methodist Children’s Home (FUMCH) during a luncheon on Thursday, August 20. The money was raised during an August 4 event sponsored by WOAMTEC, a premier business building organization for women, and hosted by the Debary Golf and Country Club. Fifty-eight attendees, including 18 WOAMTEC members and their families and friends, paid $5 each to take part in a Pilates class led by Gale Kohler, a fitness instructor and WOAMTEC member, followed by a buffet dinner. Additional donations were raised through drink sales, individual donations, and a $100 donation from the Swamphouse Grill.

FUMCH cares for children who cannot live with their families as the result of sexual or physical abuse, abandonment or because of family breakdown due to divorce, drug abuse, illness or death of a parent.

Approximately 85 percent of the Home’s funding comes through private donations.

WOAMTEC’s Mission is to help women grow their businesses while maintaining their priorities of faith, family and career,” notes Whitten. “Our members are committed to giving back to their communities, and we think the Children’s Home is an extremely worthwhile cause.”
