Non-Profit Heroes - Nadine's Blue Butterfly NPO - Sterk Family Law Group, P.C.

After Jennefer Hofferica’s mother, Nadine, passed away in 2020 from ALS, Jennefer was looking to find a way to honor her mother while servicing. Nadine was a long-time victim of domestic abuse and had a small blue butterfly tattoo on her shoulder and Nadine’s legacy helped Nadine’s Blue Butterfly emerge from it’s cocoon.  Sterk Family Law Group is pleased to honor them as our October 2022 Non-Profit Hero!     Knowing that children are greatly affected by the effects of abuse, Jennefer wanted to find a way to flutter some joy into these kids’ lives. In the midst of the pandemic shutdown, Jennifer reached out to her neighbors to inquire if they had any gently used or new items that could be given to children and teens who are affected by traumas.  After an outpouring of donations was received, Jennefer’s path to officially establishing Nadine’s Blue Butterfly was in flight.   Jennefer and NBB’s team works closely with domestic violence shelters, such as the Crisis Center for South Suburbia and Guardian Angels, to help provide for the needs of child victims.   Nadine’s Blue Butterfly hosts private “shopping sprees” to provide clients from partnered domestic violence and social service organizations the opportunity to "shop" for gifts for their children as well as basic necessities and clothing.  Registration is required for these events, but Jennefer and team do not require those registering to disclose any information other than a name and number to help ensure their safety.    If you are looking to support or if you know someone who may need the service that Nadine’s Blue Butterfly offers, you may connect with them here: https://nadinesbluebutterfly.com/  https://www.facebook.com/nadinesbluebutterfly  To learn more or to connect with Sterk Family Law Group, P.C. or Gwendolyn Sterk, call 815-600-8950 or visit www.sterkfamilylaw.com   ******  Sterk Family Law provides a full range of family law and estate planning services in Orland Park for clients in Will, Cook, and DuPage counties.  The Sterk Family Law Group team provides a holistic approach to the practice of law and strives to not only service a client’s legal needs, but also help manage a client’s emotional and overall well-being by establishing connections with a vast network of counselors, support groups, and various other non-traditional service providers within local communities by way of the unique Resource Center.  The Resource Center provides Sterk Family Law clients with access to other professionals to help prepare for the next step in their lives.    ******  This podcast is for informational and educational purposes only.
