One of Mitzie's favorite things is her job as advancement associate with Lutheran Family Services. She is working on a great project in partnership with the Veterans Administration. The project is a transitional home for homeless female veterans. It's called Angel House.

Angel house will serve six female veterans at a time. The goal of this project is by the time they leave this home they will be self sufficient, have a job, bank account and a house or apartment. There are 300 female homeless veterans in South Carolina and 71 percent of them have suffered sexual assault while in the military, according to some statistics.
