Domestic Violence Awareness Month




Melissa Marsch-Walblay
sells her beautiful silk pieces in our store. For the month of October she is donating 35% of her sales to a Domestic Violence shelter in Bowling Green, KY. Here is what she has to say...



October is Domestic Violence Awareness...

Domestic violence should not happen to anybody. My goal is to help inform or aid in the awareness of abused women. This is an area that is too often overlooked, dismissed, or too difficult to comprehend. Domestic violence can happen in any home, lifestyle, or education level.

I am dedicating 35% of my sales this month, to a local shelter for abused women. Facilities such as these are needed to give shelter, legal advice, and information to any abused woman. With the aid of the advocates they provide, many women find the strength to continue the battle. This is a system that focuses on the victim and her family. Confidentiality and safety are their top priority. Too many women would not make it through the battle if it were not for the support, encouragement and belief these workers give.

Please help me continue to support our local shelters. For more information of Marsch Inspiration, visit www.melissamarschwalblay.com. For more information on Domestic Violence and what we can do to help, visit www.domesticviolence.org.

Blessing,

Melissa Marsch-Walblay
