Was created for a Domestic Violence Awareness event sponsored by LMCC
There are many great causes out there, but there is one that I support and stand with , the cause against Domestic Violence. Over the years I have participated in a few initiatives and campaigns. I was actively involved in SOAR (Survivors Overcoming Abusive Relationships in the Merrimack Valley), an initiative sponsored by the Lawrence/Methuen Community Coaliton (LMCC) in partnership with the YWCA of Greater Lawrence, Supportive Care, and the Women’s Resource Center. Due to a lack of funding that awareness campaign dried up, but in my heart the dream has not died.
Presently I am creating products for sale at http://www.zazzle.com/vpholmes/gifts?cg=196854753686595269 amongst the product lines are Domestic Violence Awareness items such as , buttons, T-shirts, bumper sticker, mugs and other available items on the site. I will be partnering with a local agency ( focus is domestic violence) and all proceeds from the sale of this product line will go to that agency to benefit individuals of Domestic Abuse.
I have my moments…there are times I will stand at the microwave, feet tapping and questioning why is it taking so long. Then there are the days when Job and I are twins. Sunday was one of those, nothing went right, as I was about to post my article for 1stAngel Arts Magazine when my computer crashed. I will be the first to tell you, I have no patience with electronic equipment, but that day I sat quietly went through all the steps for my computer to reboot…Nothing! All this began at 9am. Well, instead of grumbling, groaning, and the irrational tossing, I quietly took my paint brush and went to work on my eisel. Later at 7pm, I gave Dell a call, they walked me through the necessary steps to have my system working again.
