Madeworthy’s Bright Ideas

In each issue of Madeworthy, we shine a spotlight on local businesses and groups who make Fort Worth a little brighter in our “Bright Ideas” sponsored features. Here are our Bright Ideas for March and April:

Kim Burnstad, KBB Photography

With a background in newspaper, magazine, and catalog photography, Kim Burnstad has a wealth of experience at her fingertips. Burnstad says the most important things in her life are family, fun and photography. Therefore, she has shifter her focus (pun intended) to photographing weddings, families and small businesses. She feels that quality prints always feel better than screenshots on a phone of laptop, and great photographs become family heirlooms. KBB Photography is running a special for brides who book in 2019. They will receive a free engagement shoot as well as a free in person consultation. www.instagram.com/kbbphoto/ (512)569-4181

We believe these moms will raise healthy, strong families. The engaging Stroller Strides and Stroller Barre programs, for example, utilize your baby’s stroller with your baby in it. The FIT4MOM fitness and wellness programs help moms regain strength in body, mind, and spirit. So, whether you’re pregnant with your first or an empty nester, there’s a place for you in the FIT4MOM Fort Worth Village. https://fortworth.fit4mom.com/   Email beccagraham@fit4mom.com

CASA 

Volunteer Jenifer Halvey when working with foster children asks, “what is the best solution for these children, and how do we get there?” Recently Jenifer helped a severely abused child, 5-month-old Chloe, find stability while in foster care. Jenifer was the catalyst in connecting the child’s family to community support, and now Chloe is safely healing in a permanent home with her siblings. CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) of Tarrant County advocates for abused and neglected children in our community.

Gathering Hope

Gathering Hope, a non-profit ministry is celebrating its first full year of serving mothers who have survived miscarriage and infant loss. Co-founders Peyton Lauderdale and Carol Vantine have seen how community makes a difference in the lives of women who feel silenced, lonely or disconnected after their loss. Being a catalyst for healing is at the heart of what Gathering Hope aims to do for the mothers they serve. At their annual gathering in October women are both encouraged and given the opportunity to share their story with others who have walked the same path. At quarterly socials women can deepen new relationships in a relaxed setting and connect with resources they need to support their grieving process. www.gatheringhope.net
