Testimonials

"Being a S.A.F.E. House Inc. employee has brought such joy to my life. Over the past few years, I have had the great pleasure of being of service to the members of our community. Helping them to overcome obstacles that are a direct result of intimate partner domestic violence. One such obstacle is a clients need to maintain their beloved pet while fleeing a DV relationship. Knowing that a client won’t have to choose between leaving their pet, or leaving their abuser brings everyone great relief. Being able to provide clients with gifts above and beyond essentials is the highlight of our day, and theirs. To see a clients face light up when presented with a Mother’s day gift, or birthday gift cannot be put into words."

This is the text message received from one of our survivors after receiving a Thanksgiving bag. (See below) After sending the text, she mentioned she didn’t plan much for Thanksgiving before receiving the bag. She had only planned to make turkey, cookies and decorate them with her children. She was so excited!

From a mother with four children:

The family was so excited when they were told about this opportunity, as they were not planning on having Thanksgiving this year."God Bless! Thank you so much for this. This couldn't have come at a better time."

From a domestic violence survivor, left as a voice mail:

“Thank you! This means a lot to me to know there are people who take their time to think of people like me who are going through a difficult situation. Thank you again!” Her voice sounded like she wanted to cry.
