Story
This year, Women's Advocates is taking their annual fundraising event virtual! Due to extra safety precautions in reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic and an anticipated drop in federal funding, Women's Advocates has been called on by the community to take on a larger role with increased wraparound supports as we walk with victims/survivors and our community to break the cycle of domestic violence. I ask you to join us. I am creating this page to support their Emergency Response Virtual Event, which will take place on Thursday, October 15 at noon on YouTube. The event is free to attend and donations will be requested to support Women's Advocates' Emergency Response efforts to continue supporting victims of domestic violence with 24/7 crisis intervention, emergency shelter, housing advocacy, and the mobilization of safety resources throughout the community and beyond. A challenge grant has been issued for a dollar for dollar match up to $75,000.
Please RSVP to attend the event:

Women's Advocates will follow up with updates and a link to the YouTube Emergency Response Virtual Event prior to October 15.
You can make a donation to Women's Advocates at any time via this fundraising page!
