After becoming widowed in 2005, a desire to help widows and others dealing with loss ensued.

This aspiration evolved into a life mission for Robin Craig, a three–time Emmy award–winning Television Producer, who delivers enlightenment, encouragement and empowerment to all.

HOUSTON—Mayor of Houston Bill White has issued a proclamation designating July 22 as Help a Widow Day.

The recognition has been sought for a long period of time and many people believe it is long overdue. Robin Craig created “Project Widows” in an effort to bring the topic to the forefront in order to support, encourage and empower affected women to create a great life despite the adversity of widowhood.

Craig explains on FOX 26 Morning News why widows are sometimes the forgotten members of society and what is and is not appropriate to say to a widow.
