The Emergency Fund

I am creating a charity that financially aids domestic abuse survivors who left their abusers. The charity will support payments

• to counselors specializing in post-abuse therapy and
• to cost of living expenses for up to 6 months after leaving the abuser (i.e. rent/deposit, utilities, vehicle expenses related to attending therapy and domestic violence groups, etc.)

By supporting survivors, the charity will prevent the survivor from returning to the abusive relationship due to financial reasons or lack of emotional support. Without therapy and money, many domestic abuse victims will return to their abusers.

My name is Kellie Jo Holly, creator of Verbal Abuse Journals. Catherine invited me to post today to share my hopes for The Emergency Fund. Please support this cause so we can help more survivors stay free of abuse. There is more information at the Go Fund Me website, and you can click in the donation widget below to find out more about this charity and to donate to this cause.

If you give to Verbal Abuse Journals and me, Kellie Jo Holly, I vow to put every penny into paying LegalZoom.com to draw up the paperwork needed to create this charity. We need only $1002 to get started!

Thank you!
