We have been given a unique opportunity to have a Mom's Night Out with childcare provided for kids ages 3-12. (Kids must be potty-trained). The East Valley YMCA has generously offered a 3-hour experience for our kids: games, a pizza dinner and other activities. While they are being entertained and cared for, moms will head over to Top Golf in Gilbert to eat food, hang out and golf for a couple of hours! (Join us even if you don't want to golf).

Widows With Kiddos President and Cofounder

Sarah Goodwin

In June of 2003, my life changed in the most unexpected way. I met an incredible man aboard a cruise ship in Alaska—a stranger who, in just a matter of days, became my friend. I had fallen ill during the trip, and this kind-hearted man, Daniel, whom I had just met, selflessly took care of me. I remember him gently wiping my forehead with a cool cloth, tying my shoes, and walking me around the ship for hours in the cold Alaskan air to help me feel better.

Three years later, we stood face-to-face and promised to love and care for one another for the rest of our lives. What I didn’t know then was that our 15th wedding anniversary would also be our last.
