We are a sisterhood of Central Ohio Female Musicians and Supporters working to cultivate a supportive and positive space in the Central Ohio Music Community offering camaraderie, encouragement and friendship. This is our second year partnering with CHOICES, and we would like you to consider assisting us in reaching our benefit goal of $50,000.00!
Each year, approximately 500,000 women are physically assaulted or raped by an intimate partner compared to 100,000 men. Three out of 10 women at some point are stalked, physically assaulted, or raped by an intimate partner, compared to 1 out of every 10 men. (NIH.gov)
CHOICES gives refuge, hope, and tools to survivors including emergency assistance and emergency shelter, counseling, meals, medical attention, clothing, transportation to work or school, an on-site kennel for the furry friends and more.
We stand up and raise our voices and lend our aid for survivors and those still suffering. They are our friends, our daughters, our coworkers, and our sisters. Please join us in breaking the silence and the stigma around domestic violence.
