Global nonprofit provides help for survivors struggling with high living costs and lack of resources
LOS ANGELES, July 20, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Global domestic violence nonprofit Unsilenced Voices (UV) and LA-based agency RayCo Media (RayCo) will host a free community luncheon in Playa del Rey Sunday, July 24, called A Blanket of Hope: Survivor to Thriver. UV will bring immediate assistance to abuse survivors; educate the public on building safer communities; and invite fellow organizations to collaborate through volunteerism, donation, or sponsorship.
In Los Angeles, exorbitant housing and living costs create an extra barrier for domestic abuse survivors trying to move out of the household, hence domestic violence is a strong risk factor for homelessness. UV's mission is to help families transition to safety without becoming homeless. Guest speakers include actor/success coach Kaya Redford, author Antoinette Logan, and family attorney Marc Goldberg. Local nonprofits Pathways for Victims and the Downtown Women's Center will exhibit their services, and lunch will be provided.
"We're so grateful to our generous sponsors like Streetstop and Melaleuca for helping us end the pain brought by domestic abuse", says UV founder Michelle Jewsbury. "It's critical that resources are readily available to survivors and that everyone in the community plays a role in preventing further suffering."
"As a local business, RayCo is proud to support the humanitarian work of Unsilenced Voices", says Co-Founder Rebecca Binny. "They share our goal of building sustainable nonprofits."
UV has partnered with Scars of Survival magazine as the media partner for A Blanket of Hope, a five-city tour that began with Dallas in April and ends with Tampa in November. Register for free here and come out July 24 10:00am - 3:30pm PST to:
8025 W. Manchester Ave
Playa del Rey, CA 90293
