While working at Brighter Tomorrows, Inc. in Shirley, a human service agency dedicated to empowering survivors of domestic violence through the provision of safe housing, supportive counseling, and legal advocacy services, Ms. Orkin realized what her project would be in earning her Gold Service. She found there was a need for hygiene items among the many woman seeking services so she raised funds to have a dispenser with much needed products available in the women's lavatory.
