We hope that you, your families and friends are well and safe during this time.
Most essential workers in the United States are women. If you are experiencing changes in your routine – whether currently working from home or being asked to return to your workplace, you might be worrying about finances and quarantine fatigue. Additional worry about mental health and risk of exposure to COVID-19 are affecting most of us.
We salute those of you who work in essential industries, including cleaning services, grocery and drug stores, farmer’s markets, transportation, federal, state and local government, active duty U.S. Military and Reserves, teaching, U.S. Post Office, and other delivery businesses. We thank the region’s brave first responders and their equally brave families: medical personnel, firefighters, law enforcement, and City and County maintenance crews and volunteers.
More than 50 women are assisted each year by the Alexandria Domestic Violence Safe House. Not only does it provide shelter, but a gift basket of items when women leave the Safe House and start their new lives. Shower for the Shelter will help “restock the shelves” of items needed for the Safe House and for gift baskets.
All you need to do is find something you would like to donate on our Target Registry, add it to your cart, check out, and the items will be shipped directly to the Safe House. Your help is greatly appreciated for this extremely worthy cause. Gently used household and clothing items, gift cards, and cash donations/debit cards are also welcomed.
