On Tuesday, December 7, hundreds of local politicians and dignitaries convened at Talis Park to honor St. Matthew’s House with The Senators’ Pride of Florida Award.

State Senator Kathleen Passidomo presented Steve Brooder, CEO, with the award for our service providing food, housing and hope to those experiencing hunger, homelessness and addiction across Southwest Florida.

“It’s such an honor,” said Steve Brooder, CEO. “And I’m here to accept it on behalf of our board of directors and our staff and our volunteers.”
