Thanks everyone for visiting my Hot Chocolate Run fundraising page!
This event is becoming an annual thing for me...on December 2nd, I'm running the race with Ari....may the best runner win! This great event raises funds for Safe Passage, the organization addressing domestic violence in Hampshire County.
Some examples of what your generous donations can do:
$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.
I will be accepting all good karma, but any financial contribution (if you are able to make one) would be greatly appreciated! If you want to learn more about the event or come see Ari eat my dust on December 2nd, visit http://hotchocolaterun.com.
