History of Still Wind Ministries
2011
Still Wind Ministries was started in 2011 as a non-profit in Greenville, SC by the Forthman family and Jennifer D. Massey. The original mission was to build a bridge between professional Christian counselors and the local church through services, education, and grant funding to improve the accuracy and quality of guidance that the church provided to members on subjects of mental, emotional and relational health.
2015
In 2015, due to health reasons, the Forthmans withdrew their participation, leaving a gap in leadership and partnership development.
2019
In 2019, SWM expanded its services to include counselors in other parts of the community and educational professionals.
2020
In 2020, the pandemic changed the nature of business. This prompted SWM to sell its building and focus on developing a wider network partnership program.
Today
Over the past three years, there has been substantial changes in leadership, organizational branding, and operational procedures. However, even with all of the changes, SWM has continued to provide grant funds to clients thanks to community partnerships and donations.
