More About Me

Shirlene Elkins was the principal of a catering company in the Washington Metropolitan Area for 12 years. When she relocated to Southwest Florida in 1992, she became involved in the following organizations: Children’s Museum of Naples, Immokalee Foundation; Naples Philharmonic; Naples Museum; Women In Transition; Youth Haven; Boys & Girls Club; Naples Children & Education Foundation; and the David Lawrence Center. In 1999, Shirlene founded Children's Charities, which sends local high school seniors to college, based totally on their need rather than grades. Currently there are six children in the program that are attending a Florida state college or university.
