Ticket Home: A Fresh Start for a Survivor

Tax deductible
You can make a difference by donating today to Grassroots Bridge Buildersict.

Grassroots Bridge Builders ICT (GRBB) is urgently raising $300 to help one of our clients—a resilient survivor of domestic violence—return home to Colorado, where safety, stability, and support await.

After being abandoned by her partner, she survived over a month sleeping outside with her service animal, facing daily threats to her health and safety. She was robbed, denied access to shelters due to her dog, and turned away from services because of systemic barriers.

One of our GRBB peer ambassadors met her sleeping outside, offering immediate compassion and action. Within just 48 hours, our trauma-informed response team:

Enrolled her in our medical outreach and completed an urgent health evaluation

Arranged ER access for a foot wound and complex medical needs—including advocating for service animal accommodation

Coordinated emergency foster care for her dog so she could sleep safely indoors

Gained access to the day shelter and peer support services

Assisted with transportation, seizures and medication management, and shelter advocacy

Located her in the ICU after she went missing, delivering care history and emotional support

Together with our partners and her contacts in Colorado, we’ve developed a solid plan for her long-term healing and housing—but she needs a bus ticket to get there.

Unfortunately, a program with the Wichita Police Department was unable to assist due to out-of-state legal concerns, despite our client being actively engaged with the necessary officials.

Please help us raise $300 before she is discharged from the hospital so we can purchase her ticket, cover necessary travel expenses, and give her the fresh start she deserves. Every dollar helps break down walls and build bridges—one life at a time.
