Thank you for your generous contribution of $500 in support of survivors of domestic violence and their children as we help to Empower A New Generation by providing the resources and outreach needed to realize the skills for healthy relationships. Your transformative gift has enabled us to deliver sanctuary, safety, and crucial services when survivors and their children needed them most in order to break the cycle of violence.
Caring friends like you ensure that we continue to empower and strengthen the youth in our community with life-changing services as they more forward from abuse towards a brighter tomorrow. Our Youth Team works with these youngsters on communication skills, boundaries, and resiliency. As one high school student in our Healthy Relationship Classroom Presentation observed:
"I learned who to talk to when I need help in a relationship."
This is the life-changing impact you make when you support young people by helping to break the generational cycle of violence. When we can bolster children's safety and ability to foster healty relationships, we are able to Empower A New Generation.
Thanks to you, survivors of domestic violence and their children have a hopeful, new start and brighter future filled with dignity and respect. We appreciate your gift of caring.
