D.A.D. - Domestic Abuse Disruption

Many who have expressed their gratitude for services provided have called us "Hero's". I am not sure that word applies to what we do. However I will tell you who it befits to a tee. Those donors who, though small in number, donate so often and repeatedly to keep us rolling and trying to fight the good fight. Without them we would have come to a screeching halt months ago! Now we are just $1358. away from a true financial foothold of $10,000. dollars in a lump sum pledge. I need some New Hero's to make this happen. If you have been on the sideline this past year and watched, we invite you now, right now, to join in and make a true difference in the lives of those being oppressed and beaten down. 100 donors with donations of only $13.58 gets us all where we need to be. Please if you have the ability and the means, help us help them. Donate now.

On Friday Oct 9th I paid the filing fees and filed the incorporation paper work for D.A.D with the SCC and shortly will have the EIN for submitting our 501(c)(3) status as a Non Profit. Thank you to the Bullington Law Firm for handling this for us. We stand right now $1468 dollars away from our goal of $20,000 in total donations over the last 13 months. Once we raise that $1468. we will immediately receive a pledge of $10,000. ! That is so huge for us to have a lump sum to use to assist those Abuse Victims in need. It also helps us to add to the services already provided by implementing the Job & Life Skills Tutoring program which is beneficial not just to the victims but to our entire community. Helping these women become self sustaining and employable saves us all. But it all, current services already provided to hundreds and hundreds of women, and future services all cease without you and your support, and the much needed $1468. in donations. We are the only service taking this hands on approach. And it is working. We don't chant. We don't have slogans. We don't burn candles. We don't wear ribbons. That's not our style and their are plenty of others taking that route. A very small number of generous donors have helped us make a difference. There are 400,000 plus people in the Roanoke, Botetourt, Franklin, Montgomery, and Craig County area, our primary service location. Its your women we are helping. We ask you now to help us. No amount is to small. Your change can help make a change. We need you now. Don't wait on your neighbor to act. Join them, and us in Disrupting the violence these women suffer.

We are only $1758 dollars away from receiving the pledge of $10,000. dollars from thesecularsociety.org/ and being in a much stronger position to not only keep providing assistance to those in need , but to begin providing needed additional services as well. This is the Roanoke Valley (and beyond) only hands on solution to this growing problem. While others simply say "NO" ,we just GO!
