Everyone is into second chances these days, just take former South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford who won back his previous congressional seat after a bizarre story about hiking the Appalachian Trail – a missing in action story to cover up an affair. After his win, he was quoted as saying: “I just want to acknowledge a God not just of second chances, but third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth chances.”
Then there’s former NY Rep. Anthony Wiener moving right along, vying for his fourth chance. The disgraced politician, best know for sexting, could possibly fulfill Sanford’s statement.
So why not give second chances to people that really need it? That is the focus of Dr. Ludy Green’s “Second Chance Employment Services” the recipient of a fundraiser held at Nick’s Riverside Grill at Georgetown’s Washington Harbour on Sunday.
Hosted by SWS (Sip with Socialites) and spearheaded by Victoria Michael, the afternoon brunch included the usual brunch buffet with endless mimosas.

Beneficiaries of Second Chance Employment Services provides employment placement services free of charge for Welfare beneficiaries, the abused, the elderly and other at-risk women seeking long term employment.
“We are thrilled about the action Congress has taken to finally recognize employment as a key solution to end domestic violence,” said Dr. Green.
