Helping raise more than $70,000 for St. Petersburg, FL Domestic Abuse Shelter
Deborah Williams, the St. Petersburg, FL CASA Domestic Abuse Shelter Director of Development, wrote about Rebecca Lindsey and the luncheon’s sponsor, Mary Shuh: “Wow, what a dynamic duo! Thank you for the wonderful job you did to help raise money for our domestic abuse shelter. More than $70,000 was raised for CASA as a result of your efforts at the Good Night Sleep Lunch.”
“It is great to be able to thank anyone that has sponsored shelters and survivors of domestic violence. I know it can seem frustrating as a sponsor when you do not see the results of your time and money – but if you save one life, you save the world. A sponsor’s time and kindness is never for nothing.”
“If you are related to someone or friends with someone you are almost obligated to have to help them. The people that help the most in these cases generally are strangers – yet they care and help anyway. God bless you the volunteers for your efforts; it really makes all the difference in the world.”
All my love,
Rebecca
Rebecca spoke with individuals like Mayor Rick Baker of St. Petersburg, FL in attendance showing their support to help end domestic violence.
Please, help support your local shelter(s) by calling 1 (800) 799-SAFE (7233) to find a shelter in your area.
Any funds you donate can be a tax write-off as well. The gift of your time as a Volunteer is one of the most precious gifts you could ever give someone.
Thank you for your support and God bless.
