Giving

Our advocates and staff serve nearly 1,000 survivors of domestic violence each year. Please consider helping us continue this work by continuing to give. Below are options for giving one-time, recurring and planned financial gifts, as well as our most commonly needed items. We are proud to have earned GuideStar’s Gold Seal of Transparency.

Financial Gifts

If not you, then who? We need you- individuals who possess a resolve to create a community that is safe for all. We invite you to make a one-time contribution, or to set up a recurring gift that is comfortable for you. 

We also invite you to leave a lasting impact by considering a planned gift. Contact us for a conversation! 

When we say every donation matters, we mean it! If it is meaningful to you, it will be meaningful to us.
