She Left With Nothing. That's Not a Figure of Speech.
People escaping domestic violence leave in the middle of the night with a bag, sometimes with children, usually without money of their own. Here is exactly what your donation buys.
Every dollar contributed directly provides flexible financial assistance, gas cards, grocery support, and safety supplies to survivors across Florida, North Carolina, and West Virginia.

Campaigns Tiers
$25 — A Gas Card: Gets a survivor to work, to court, to her lawyer, or to her children's school. Transportation is the single most common reason a survivor returns to an abusive home.
$100 — A Week of Groceries: A family that just escaped has no pantry. This covers the vital week between leaving an abusive partner and receiving a first independent paycheck.
$250 — A Start Over Bin: Everything needed to make an empty transitional apartment livable: pots, pans, dishes, sheets, towels, soap, and basic kitchen supplies.
$400 — A Laptop: Provides a survivor with a personal computer to apply for jobs, take college courses, and manage legal/housing paperwork.
Survivors do not leave on a convenient schedule. Monthly recurring gifts are what allow our team to say yes in the exact week someone actually escapes.
