Tax deductible

My name is Kimberly Dupuis (as you should know) and I work for Pathways for Change, Inc. which is the local Rape Crisis Center of Central Massachusetts. Pathways for Change, Inc. is celebrating their 45th Anniversary during 2018 with a variety of events scheduled throughout the year, ending with special evening of Celebrating Survivors at their “Faces of Change” Gala, on Friday, October 12th in the Hogan Center at the College of the Holy Cross, Worcester.

This July will be my 2 year anniversary working at Pathways for Change. I am the Youth Counselor and Social Media Specialist at our agency. A part of my role is providing free and confidential services to 12-16 year olds who have been impacted by sexual violence. I provide legal, police, medical, counseling and the 24/7 Hour Hotline services. When I'm not counseling I am planning our marketing campaign. When I am a social media specialist I am engaging the community by letting them know what the agency is up to and about our services.

Our agency is trying to raise 45K. Will you help me? My goal is to raise $450 and be able to present a check to my Executive Director on Monday, August 5th.

Here are some statistics:
$100 Pays for a Survivor to recieve supportive services in the emergency room - We serve 700 Medical Advocacy calls in a year - Each MedAv takes about three hours at least
$75 Pays for one hour of ASL fluent counseling for a Deaf Survivor (We have... an awesome Deaf Survivors Program)
$50 Pays for 15 teenagers to be taught about healthy relationships and concent. - We see over 2,000 students in a year (We have two programs in schools. First is SAYE which means Sexual Assault Youth Educator, second is our MAC program which means Males Advocating Change)
$25 Provides a healing workbook for a survivor in group counseling

Ending sexual violence and creating awareness is my passion. I strive to help others every single day. I hope within my career that I can have at least one individual see the light for a split second.

Thank you for your consideration in supporting your local Rape Crisis Center and showing survivors that together we can end the silence and end sexual violence.
