Create lasting change by joining Safe Haven’s Sustainer Circle—our monthly giving program that provides steady, reliable support for survivors of domestic violence and our work.

Monthly gifts help reduce administrative costs and ensure that more of your donation goes directly to the people and programs that need it most. Your ongoing support allows us to plan ahead, respond quickly, and be there for survivors 365 days a year. The cumulative impacts speak for themselves:

‍

$10/mo | supports an educational presentation to medical professionals who are learning to recognize and better support survivors of domestic violence

$25/mo | feeds all shelter guests for one day

$50/mo | provides 12 life-saving plans for victims/survivors in crisis

$100/mo | keeps the Resource Center open for one day

‍

To join, simply check the “monthly recurring donation” option on our online donation form.

Together, we are providing hope and healing to survivors —month by month.
