Domestic Violence Awareness

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.
