Take a STAND! There�s no time to waste. Every nine seconds someone is being abused by their partner. You may not be able to reach into a home and stop the violence there, but you can reach into your wallet and help us provide an abused person with safety and dignity. Every dollar donated and every volunteer minute contributed to STAND! helps weaken the hold of domestic violence on generations of families. How does this affect you? You're acquainted with someone who has been abused, although you may not know it. One in four American women have been abused. In some cases your support may save a life; it will almost certainly change one. That life may be a neighbor, a friend, a local shopkeeper, the mother of your child's best friend. Please act now. Whether you donate or volunteer, you'll contribute to STAND! programs that make an enormous difference in your community. Just ask the 252 women who sought refuge in our emergency shelter last year. Or the 9,000 people who called our crisis line. Together we can transform the lives of families devastated by domestic violence. Together, we can take a stand against domestic violence. Make a difference. Take a STAND! on domestic violence in one of the following ways: |
