Thanks for visiting my Hot Chocolate Run fundraising page! On December 7, I'm participating in the 11th Annual Hot Chocolate Run, which will be my third 5K with Safe Passage in as many years. This great event raises funds for Safe Passage, the organization addressing domestic violence in Hampshire County.
I care about the work Safe Passage is doing. I care a lot. So much so that, just like last year, I'll be making goofy music videos of myself every time you donate. So share my donation page with your family, friends, and total strangers because even if I look like a fool, I feel like I'm doing good work. Last year, cumulatively, my friends and family donated over $600, which was three times as much money we raised in my first year. How much can we get this year?
Will you join me in supporting this terrific organization?
Every day, Safe Passage helps survivors of domestic violence take steps towards a brighter and safer future. Some of these steps are easier, and some are harder. Every step is important.
Before I run in the freezing cold (again), I’ve decided to Step Up for Safe Passage, and I’m asking you to join me (yes, again). Please make a donation to support Safe Passage’s important work. Safe Passage relies on people like you and me to bring hope, safety, and justice to women and families.
Here are some ways Safe Passage will put your gift to work:
$30: Resources, support and hope for a woman calling the 24-hour hotline
$55: A survivor's first counseling session. For many of Safe Passage's clients, this is the first time they've felt heard. It's the first time in years that they've felt hopeful.
$120: A drop-in support group session for survivors of domestic violence
$225: Information, advice and support for a survivor facing a divorce or custody dispute
$500: Healing counseling for a child who has witnessed violence
All contributions are tax-deductible, and you’ll receive an emailed receipt immediately after you donate.
You can make a difference for families affected by domestic violence. I hope you’ll join me!
Thank you so much for your support! If you want to learn more about it, visit http://hotchocolaterun.com.
