Recipient story
Resilient woman, grieving her son, seeks hope and healing with her cat—struggling to afford basics.
GIVIT
Domestic & Family Violence
Christmas 2025
She has endured years of hardship—estranged from family, surviving a violent relationship, and most recently, the devastating loss of her only son. Now completely alone, she faces immense grief while striving to rebuild her life. Despite the weight of sorrow, she remains determined to create a safer space where healing can begin.
Her only companion is her beloved cat, Cutie Pie, who offers comfort in moments of crisis and reminds her she is not forgotten. Yet even the basics—food for herself and supplies for her cat—are often out of reach.
What makes her story powerful is not just the pain she has endured, but the resilience she shows in the face of it. With your support, she can find relief from daily struggles and begin to restore hope. By giving, you are not only providing essentials—you are helping a woman who has lost everything find strength in tomorrow.
