Stefanie Womble received a BS in Hotel & Restaurant Management and a BA in Spanish. Later she completed her MBA with an emphasis in Marketing.
The healthcare industry is where Stefanie worked for seven years as she worked in various roles. In addition, she cares for her 101+ year-old grandmother full-time, and has been for nearly 7 years.
Stefanie has a passion for helping others. Her desire to help those seeking recovery from addiction developed even more from two personal incidents that occurred years ago – one was the passing of her own mother – who lost her battle with addiction.
Romans 12:9 states Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Continuing in verse 13, Share with the Lord's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
Starts With Love Foundation provides homes where love is at the forefront of the support provided.
