Franklin Street Helps Combat Eating Disorders in Richmond with Northfield Ministries

Franklin Street has provided Northfield Ministries, a Virginia not-for-profit, with office space and furniture totaling near $30,000 annually. 

Northfield Ministries is a 501c3 not-for-profit organization providing hope and care for girls between the ages of 13 and 21 who are struggling with life challenges such as eating disorders, depression, and self-harm.

“Our mission is to meet young women and their families where they are, go with them on their journey to restoration and healing, and to give them the tools to break free,” says Gwen Seiler, Northfield Ministries Founder and Executive Director.

In addition to office space in Richmond donated by Franklin Street, Northfield Ministries plans to open a residential facility in Cumberland, VA for young women who need a transitional home to focus full-time on healing and deliverance from self-destructive thinking and behaviors.

Partners Will Flynn, Stephen Moegling, and Tim Roberts are happy to be able to help the Richmond community and greater Virginia area.
