Thank You: Walk a Mile in Their Shoes 2020
Thank you to everyone who stepped up for survivors during our Walk a Mile in Their Shoes event in October! So many of you joined us by raising awareness, inspiring your friends, donating to our Becky’s House Domestic Violence Programs, and walking a mile with your creative style. It’s especially heartwarming to see your unwavering support when we couldn’t be together in person this year.
In the Company of Women 2020: Your Support is Still Needed
To benefit survivors, we expected to hold our annual In the Company of Women event to raise critical funds for our Becky’s House Domestic Violence Programs. The event has been cancelled but we still need your support. Please join Sharp HealthCare and others to make a gift to help survivors. Our amazing friend and long-time supporter, Joan Waitt, will match all donations up to $50,000 — doubling your impact!
Challenge Match: The David C. Copley Foundation
We are pleased to share that The David C. Copley Foundation is standing up for survivors with an incredible challenge – they will match all gifts up to $30,000 through May 31, 2020, doubling your impact! Any amount will make a difference, so please give what you can.
Continued Support for Survivors and their Families
As a provider of critical emergency and social services for vulnerable adults and children, we continue to serve our community. And although the environment is challenging for everyone, it is further amplified for those fleeing domestic violence or seeking safe housing with limited resources. These are the times when people need us most and we will continue to serve them — as we have for the past 112 years.
2020 Stand Against Racism
Stand Against Racism is an annual campaign of YWCA USA to unite communities across the United States on racial justice through education, advocacy and awareness. Our collective efforts can root out injustice, transform institutions, and create a world that sees all people, including women and people of color, the way we see them: Equal. Powerful. Unstoppable.
