Share Comfort & Joy This Holiday Season
During this time of COVID there has been an increase in the rate of domestic violence. Pre COVID, one in four women experienced intimate partner abuse. In an effort to let our sisters know they have not been forgotten during this holiday season, members of CCWA have the opportunity to sponsor a woman or a woman and her children who are spending the holidays alone in a shelter in Columbia or Greene County. We hope to bring a bit of joy to their lives by providing them with gifts and necessities.
If you are interested in participating, please respond to ccwomensalliance@gmail.com and designate a sponsorship for a single woman or a woman and her family. Sponsorships can be shared.
The shelters will be providing us with personal information such as ages, sizes and wish lists on December 1st. A Gift Giver will be anonymously paired with a Gift Receiver. Gifts must be purchased, wrapped, tagged and delivered to Pam Kline (tpklinee@gmail.com) by December 20th.
Thank you to everyone who has already expressed interest in participating.
Gratefully,
Sarah Crowell, Chair
