About me

Hi, I’m Sheryl Kirkland! In 2019 I wished there was a group to help women like me make friends so I decided to start one. I wanted a place where women felt safe to come and be themselves. A place where they could meet new people and enjoy time away from whatever might be going on in their world.

Our continued growth drew me down a path of wanting to do more for our community. We have the people; how can we help others? My heart has always been for people; but especially women! I want nothing more than to see them thrive in their life. Sometimes we feel defeated; if Women Supporting Women can be a place of refuge for them; I’m blessed to be a facilitator of that. My aim as the founder of this group is to support women in life; whatever that looks like. If we can help you grow as a person; help you grow a business; help you with whatever you might need, I want to be there for that.

In 2024 I moved our group from just a social group to a non-profit so that we can expand our reach. Our mission and values focus on issues plaguing women and children in our community: from hunger to financial issues to general support.

My hope is that you come and find a community of women who you can call friends and get involved in local community projects and non-profit organizations.
