Some survivors who have received services from House of Ruth Maryland are putting on a symposium to share their stories of survival and talk with professionals and other community members about how we can all do a better job of supporting victims of intimate partner violence. We thought we had a food vendor secured, but we no longer do. We're raising funds to provide a free lunch and snacks to approximately 50 event attendees. If you're in a position to give, I appreciate the support. Funds will go directly to House of Ruth Maryland to help support this effort. You can also comment if you have connections to a food vendor local to the Baltimore area who may be able to help. We're hoping to have funds raised by Friday, 09/26/25. Thanks community!
