Before this freeing art can be practiced, there must be a letting go. Letting go does not mean you forget the person, place, or situation. Instead, it requires you to take an honest look at what you…Continue

We are in need of shampoo & conditioner, all sizes of socks, new underwear, adult diapers, towels, and baby wipes.
Please note: The Donation Resource Center will be closed Saturday, August 31st in observance of Labor Day and will open again on Tuesday, September 3.
Sojourner Center's Donation Center is located at:
2330 E Fillmore St
Phoenix AZ 85006
Phone: (602) 253-9180
Donation Center Hours:
When fleeing abuse, a survivor often has to leave behind their home and most, if not all, of their possessions. The items you need in your own home are the very items needed by the families who come to Sojourner Center. Through the generosity of the community, our Donation Center is able to provide:
clothing for school, work, interviews, and daily wear;
household items such as lamps, small appliances, furniture and linens;
children's items such as high chairs, strollers, and toys; and
personal hygiene products.
Last May, Shanae Howard was shot and killed by her boyfriend in Montclair. Monica Paul and Shazmina Khan lost their lives to domestic violence.
To increase awareness and help women and their families heal, SOFIA, a non-profit that aims to help victims of domestic violence become self-sufficient, positive and successful, will hold its third annual Walk Against Domestic Violence on Saturday, September 7. A walk for empowerment, held every year in Montclair’s beautiful Canterbury Park, the event is a fundraiser to help support domestic abuse awareness and prevention in our own area and neighboring communities.
SOFIA, or Start Out Fresh Intervention Advocates, develops workshops on Teen Dating Violence Prevention, Bullying, Developing Healthy Relationships, Being a Supportive Ally, as well as hosting a support group for survivors and victims of domestic violence. SOFIA helps those who have experienced violence in their home lives to find empowerment and strength within themselves.
As the organizers of SOFIA say, ”It takes a village to raise a child; it also takes a team to impact our community.”
Get your own team together and join the walk on Saturday, September 7th to support this important organization! Teams can sign up to walk for $35, and individuals can sign up for $10. Registration begins at 9 am, and the walk starts at 10 am. Bring a group from work or your block or your favorite coffee shop to walk together to better your community!
For more information about SOFIA, the Third Annual Walk Against Domestic Violence, or programs in our area, please contact organizers at 973-932-0503 or email here.

https://www.facebook.com/NationalNOW About
NOW is the largest, most comprehensive feminist advocacy group in the U.S. We take action to bring women into full participation in society -- sharing equal rights, responsibilities and opportunities with men, while living free from discrimination.
Mission
Our purpose is to take action to bring women into full participation in society -- sharing equal rights, responsibilities and opportunities with men, while living free from discrimination.
Company Overview
NOW is one of the few multi-issue progressive organizations in the United States. NOW stands against all oppression, recognizing that racism, sexism and homophobia are interrelated, that other forms of oppression such as classism and ableism work together with these three to keep power and privilege concentrated in the hands of a few.
Government, our judicial system, big business, mainstream media and other institutions treat many groups in our society like second-class citizens. Pitting us against each other is an essential mechanism for maintaining the status quo. Together, we can create the change we've been dreaming of—our unity is our strength. http://www.now.org
