Grant: $9,800 to Friends with Dignity
Friends with Dignity is committed to easing the impact of domestic violence on individuals and the community, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, or sexuality. Domestic violence is a serious issue affecting many, leaving victims without the financial means to escape and rebuild their lives. By helping them piece their lives back together, we restore their dignity. Each sanctuary home, costing around $3,000, offers a safe haven. In the past 12 months, Friends with Dignity has completed 44 sanctuaries in the local community.
The City of Logan Charitable Trust has allocated $9,800 to fit out three new sanctuary homes, providing essential support for those in need.
