How We Honored
Domestic Violence Awareness Month
Throughout October, MSP honored Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM).

With our sponsors' support, we brought joy to some of the children we serve. Great Zucchini, a wonderful magician, entertained the crowd and many laughs were shared.

We also hosted a great event with our former client and new Board Member, Sharon Wise. If you missed it, we invite you to view our #PurpleThursday Signature Event HERE.

Volunteers around the area joined us for a virtual campaign posting photographs to support our work. We welcome your support year-round! Don't wait, take action now by supporting, volunteering, and raising awareness.

Special thank you HBCU golf tournament organizers for your hard work and partnership during the Domestic Violence Awareness Month. The tournament raised over $45,000.00 to benefit My Sister's Place and Men Stopping Violence. We're so grateful for such active and thoughtful community partners. Want to host a fundraiser to benefit MSP, please contact us. We would be thrilled! Take a LISTEN.

Incredible & Healing:
Exhibit of Art Works Created in Art Therapy
MSP's Art Therapy Program is offered to adults and children. It encourages healthy coping and communication while focusing on empowerment through the creative arts. We invite you to visit our second annual virtual exhibition, Journey to Freedom.

Journey to Freedom is a collaborative art exhibit between DC- based artists and survivors of domestic violence. It takes the viewer through different stages of the journey from suffering and pain to healing and hope.

Produced in collaboration with Deaf DAWN to present this exhibit
TURKEYS AND TOYS:
'TIS THE SEASON
We love Fall. There is something special about this season, the season of giving. Should you wish to participate in our Turkey or Toy drive, please contact us. Our clients are so grateful, especially this year as we all struggle with rising food prices.

Please note, we are accepting donations for Thanksgiving Dinner until November 15th, and Holiday Gifts through December 15th.

If you wish to adopt a family for the Holidays or Host a Toy Drive, without a doubt it will bring someone much joy! Please contact Angela Cavanaugh.
