As spring rains roll in, we’re collecting umbrellas to support survivors in our community.

Many of our clients rely on walking or public transportation to get to work, appointments, and school—often waiting outside for long periods of time, no matter the weather. An umbrella may seem like a small thing, but it can make a big difference in staying dry, comfortable, and cared for during those daily routines.

​

If you’d like to donate umbrellas, we’d love your support!

​

Donations can be arranged by calling 304-529-2382 (Cabell) or 304-586-3865 (Putnam) and speaking with an advocate.
