#TeamTISTuesday: The Magic of the Sedlack Society
At TIS, we believe in the transformative power of community, and the Sedlack Society is a shining example of that magic. Named in honor of our co-founder, Evelyn Sedlack, this extraordinary group of donors is the lifeblood of our mission to provide shelter, stability, support, and a path to success for those facing homelessness on Maryland’s Mid-Shore.
Evelyn Sedlack, with her tenacity and compassion, laid the foundation for what TIS is today. Her vision of creating a safe haven for families and individuals in crisis has inspired generations of volunteers, donors, and staff to carry her dream forward. The Sedlack Society celebrates donors who contribute $1,000 or more annually, helping to sustain TIS programs and ensuring that Evelyn’s legacy continues to impact lives for years to come.
This year’s Sedlack Society Appreciation Celebration, held at the Tidewater Inn, was a heartwarming reminder of what makes TIS special. The room buzzed with energy as donors, volunteers, and staff gathered to celebrate the impact of their collective generosity. Every conversation echoed Evelyn’s original mission—a belief that when kindhearted, like-minded people come together, incredible things happen.
From funding essential services for shelter guests to subsidizing transitional housing, the Sedlack Society’s contributions are profound. But beyond the numbers, this group represents a deeper connection—a community of individuals united by their commitment to making the world a better place. Together, they embody the essence of what TIS is all about: creating opportunities for change.
We are deeply grateful for our Sedlack Society members and all who support TIS. As Evelyn herself showed us, a little bit of kindness can ripple outward and create extraordinary change. If you’re interested in joining this vibrant community of changemakers, reach out to us to learn how you can be part of the magic.
