AUBURN — Safe Voices, the domestic violence prevention resource center based in Lewiston, invites businesses and community members to participate in its annual holiday programs Feed-a-Family and Adopt-a-Family.
Individuals, businesses and community organizations may support one or both programs.
Donors can help provide a happy holiday for parents and children who have had to flee a dangerous situation at home, or who have started over and are struggling to make ends meet.
The Feed-a-Family program matches donors with a family to provide a complete Thanksgiving dinner. Donors purchase the supplies for a traditional dinner of turkey, sides and dessert and deliver them to Safe Voices, which will then get them to the family in need. The Adopt-a-Family program also matches donors with families to provide gifts at Christmas time.
Anyone who would like to participate or who knows someone who would benefit from this program should visit www.safevoices.org and complete the participation form under the “Get Involved” tab or call Victoria Stanton at 207-795-6744, ext. 214.
For anyone who is at risk, Safe Voices’ 24-hour helpline is 1-800-559-2927.
