Let’s Make The World Better

 Did you know October is Domestic Violence Awareness month? Well you do now. Why is it important to know that? Because domestic violence is an extremely serious issue. It can have a huge range of consequences if it goes undealt with and in some cases has even lead to death.

I urge you all to reach out in your community. Find a charity to donate your time or money to. I plan on doing just that. Join me.

I will be giving funds to Harmony House. A local Missouri shelter.

Harmony House provides safe and secure emergency housing to families escaping domestic violence. Since 1976, our emergency shelter has offered women and their children the opportunity to rest and heal both emotionally and physically in a supportive environment. Each year, Harmony House provides shelter, case management, advocacy and other supportive services to more than 700 women and children. In addition to shelter services, Harmony House also offers outreach support, advocacy and prevention education services. It is our mission to help women break the cycle of domestic violence and live lives free from abuse.

If you or someone you know is living in an abusive situation, encourage them to call 417-864-SAFE (7233)
