Thanks for visiting my Hot Chocolate Run fundraising page! On December 2, I'm walking in this year’s Hot Chocolate Run. This great event raises funds for Safe Passage, the organization addressing domestic violence in Hampshire County.
I've pledged to raise $200 by November 1 - I hope you will consider making a donation and help me meet my fundraising goal. I'm happy to join in with the 5,000 participants in this great event to support my community of Northampton and beyond.
Safe Passage relies on support from people like us to fund their programming--including an emergency shelter program, individual counseling and support groups, legal services, a 24-hour hotline and more. Here are some examples of what these services cost:
$20: Emergency funds for a woman to purchase groceries or diapers
$45: A one-hour counseling session for a woman seeking help for the first time
$80: One weekly drop-in group session for survivors of domestic violence
$100: An hour of ASL interpreting for a deaf survivor's counseling session
$135: Three sessions for children who have witnessed domestic violence
$500: A month of on-call advocacy for victims of domestic violence police calls
All contributions are tax-deductible, and you’ll receive an emailed receipt immediately after you donate.
Thank you so much for your support! If you want to register for the event or learn more about it, visit http://hotchocolaterun.com.
