2022 Queen Bees set record for shelters

Twenty-eight families will be provided one month of shelter, food and supplies at either Harbor House Domestic Violence Shelter or St. Anthony Family Shelter, thanks to the efforts of a hard-working group of Queen Bees.

Stephanie Murphy, of 6 Meridian and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton was recognized as the 2022 Queen Bee Woman of the Year and as the top fundraiser. Recognized as the top runner-up was Lauren Fontarum, Wichita State University and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton; she joined Stephanie as the first two Bees to ever surpass $30,000 raised in a single campaign.

Catholic Charities is seeking six to 10 women who would like to support Catholic Charities’ two shelters by serving as Queen Bees in 2023.
