October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month


October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and I'm planning on focusing alot on the subject very soon.



Domestic Violence is a growing tragedy that rips many families apart on a daily basis. I have been a victim of Domestic Violence myself in the past and have sadly realized that there is not much awareness on this growing cause. In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, I will sharing survivor stories, help information and much more during the full month of October. Among the information that I will be sharing I've also chosen a local  Domestic Violence Help Center/Shelter to donate to this fall. More and more clients show up to these shelters and call the hotlines, asking for help. Supplies are often limited. Shelters have started creating Wish Lists asking for many items that most of us take for granted. I'm looking for sponsors who are willing to help out with this important event. You don't have to be local to join the cause. There are many ways to participate including: Giveaway sponsorship and monetary/product donation, just to name a couple. All proceeds will go toward Domestic Violence Services in Buncombe County, NC. (I chose to go local for the chance to give back to the people in my community) 

(We'll also be collecting unused gift cards that can be use for clothes, food, personal items, etc. If you happen to have a gift-card laying around that you don't plan on using or still has a balance, Would you be interested in possibly donating it to a good cause?)



I'm planning big things around Domestic Violence Awareness and I hope to see you all in October to help spread the word and save lives!



If you happen to be interested in helping out, My Kind Of Introduction is also accepting product donations, monetary donations, sponsors for Awareness Campaigns and much more; in exchange for promotion of your company/brand.
(I'm also accepting survival/personal stories - Names can be changed for privacy reasons, if needed.) 
Contact me, Autumn B, via email at AutoFaerie@gmail.com to discuss with more detail.

All Donations of Products/Monetary Donations will go toward Domestic Violence Services in Buncombe County, NC.

Thank you!!

My Kind Of Introduction is partnering up with the blog 3sonshavei during the month of October to help spread Domestic Violence Awareness.
Be sure to give her a visit as well!
