We Love our Volunteers!
Our holiday volunteer meeting was full of laughter, fun, food, games, and crafting! We are so grateful to for each and every one of our rock star volunteers whose kindness, compassion, and commitment to social justice not only fill our hearts with joy, but enables SARC to provide support and resources to survivors of sexual assault and exploitation, as well as survivors’ families, friends and community partners, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. THANK YOU!!
Spreading the Love!
Thanks to IStandForLove and the LifeIsBeautiful calendar matching weekend, 300 inspirational calendars were donated to SARC! We will be spreading the love throughout our community by sharing these calendars with those we serve as well as our amazing volunteers who make it all possible. A huge thank you to everyone who purchased calendars over Thanksgiving weekend, and of course, to Sarah Love for her kindness and sharing her creation with us!
