Safe House:
Please note that the safe house is not accepting used clothing at this time. Until we build and move into our new facility, we are limiting what we accept (space constraints). The best way to help the safe house with donations is through gift cards (Redner's, Giant, K-Mart, WalMart, CVS, etc.), BARTA bus passes and telephone cards.
Thank you for your continued concern and desire to help the women and children who temporarily reside in our safe house. If our situation changes, we will update the website accordingly.
