Mount Moriah Homes was founded by  Sharon Shirt in 2017 with a vision to provide safe and loving homes for children in care. This vision was of great importance to Sharon as she was a survivor of the 60's scoop. She wanted to ensure that youth or children in government care could feel the compassion, love and nurture she did not experience in her time of care. Sharon showed her empathy and love towards the children and youth that she cared for by her actions, words and wisdom.

 

Sharon did pass away in June of 2025 but her legacy will live on through Mount Moriah Homes.
