Preserving Our Home – Providing for Our Community!

The Project

In order to remain a viable, safe space for women in need, this historical structure must be updated and maintained. We recently underwent a historic assessment/inspection to determine the structural needs and requirements to safely maintain the home. As one of the few Lembke structures left in the area it is critical not to lose this important representative of Valparaiso’s rich history. Future projects involving the neighborhood and other local organizations are dependent upon this “lovely lady” being available to safely offer their services and programs to the community
