Sarah-Spring Stump - Williams Lake

Sarah-Spring Stump doesn't just talk about her philosophy of life, she lives it. Eighteen years ago, she began taking in the people no one else wanted: the homeless, aboriginals, parolees, alcoholics and drug offenders. Without any government funding, when her apartment couldn't hold any more, she began Abraham's Lodge, a shelter for the forgotten in society who have nowhere else to turn. She and her husband work seven days a week, because in her words, "everyone is equal and deserves a chance at shelter, food, clothing and to receive love."
