MacKenzie Scott Gives Hope to Survivors
We are incredibly honored to be recognized by MacKenzie Scott, author, advocate and philanthropist, with a generous gift to strengthen our programs for domestic violence survivors. In her announcement of extraordinary support for 384 organizations working to provide vital services and alleviate suffering, she writes that our hopes are fed by others. And we certainly agree.
Holiday Campaign 2020
As the holiday season nears, we reflect upon the extraordinary courage of the adult and children survivors who come to us for protection. Home is not safe for everyone — especially now during the pandemic. Violence and abuse are on the rise behind closed doors of stay at home orders, lost jobs, and school shutdowns. Read Natalie's inspiring story of bravery, strength, and determination.
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.
