Charity Drive – To Benefit the Local Women & Children’s Shelter
Charity Drive – To Benefit the Local Women & Children's Shelter
This is how you can best help the Women and Children presently living in the shelter, or those who have left the shelter to begin life as a family, free from abuse? Sometimes the hardest step is taking that first one to leave, with nothing and having to start over. It's the first step in the right direction…
The Women's Shelter is a non-profit organization. Shannon Murree of RE/MAX Chay Realty Inc, Brokerage is organizing a Charity Drive and need your help!
