Project Updates


Art therapy sessions underway...

Hi all! Wanted to give you an update: We raised $400 with the Tipping Bucket and spent about $410 on the art supplies needed for the Center for Women and Children in Crisis. We tried to purchase items that would be of most assistance and last the longest. We also ordered a box of play therapy toys, something they had specifically requested. After it was delivered and before it was picked up, it was stolen! So after UPS launched an investigation, they refunded the package and it was shipped again at no additional cost! What a blessing! So after all the fiasco was over, a group of Courage to Hope volunteers delivered the supplies to United Way (since the location of the shelter is secure, that's the only part we can show pictures of) They were very grateful and were excited to put these much needed supplies to good use. Thank you for allowing us to bless the lives of those women who struggle in our own community. Often with philanthropy, our backyard is overlooked when searching overseas for the destitute. Teaming up with Tipping Bucket has allowed us to do what we can to assist in alleviating that pain and continuing in our mission to foster a world free of domestic violence through engagement, empowerment and education. We look forward to doing another bucket with Ukraine!
