HARVEST FOOD & SUPPLY DRIVE
Harvest Food and Supply Drive donations help nourish, comfort, and provide a much-needed feeling of ‘home’ for survivors and their family members who have come to the Safe Home seeking refuge from domestic abuse and sexual assault. Every day, individuals and families escape violence, seeking safety and a space to heal. The Safe Home provides essential resources needed to begin rebuilding their lives. However, we cannot do this alone. We need your help. It is one of the most significant ways to support survivors in northern Michigan.
Last year at the Safe Home, more than 1,980 nights of shelter and 5,940 meals were provided.
The Safe Home is operated 24/7, providing families in Antrim, Charlevoix, Cheboygan, Emmet, and Otsego counties with a secure, supportive, and caring place to stay while regaining control of their lives. We need your help to continue supporting individuals and families as they heal from the physical and emotional trauma and navigate toward a more hopeful future. We are asking for donations of non-perishable food items and financial contributions to ensure that survivors have access to nutritious meals and necessary supplies. Your generosity will directly impact survivors by providing nourishment, comfort, and the reassurance that they are not alone and truly cared for.
