"There is a beauty and grace to be found in all women, from those who live in the majestic mansions in Beverly Hills to those who seek shelter for themselves and their children on skid row," says Maureen O'Crean, founder of A Bed Of My Own , a 501c3 pending foundation that benefits disadvantaged and homeless women and children. "The difference between these two groups of women is the recognition and belief in their ability to do miraculous things. One group shines their light brightly, the other groups light is hidden through pain and poverty. Together, we can use our talents to take the bushel off the light of our disadvantaged sisters, so they can thrive as well."
