"What should I do? What will happen? How can I save myself and my daughter?”

Without a dollar to her name, Samira was fleeing violence, terrified she and her daughter would end up on the street.

At the YWCA she found a safe place to call home and supports to help them move forward.

These crucial resources are possible thanks to support from community members like you.
