Hearts and hands bringing Awareness Against Domestic Violence through our initiatives…
National Domestic Violence Hotline 1.800.799.SAFE

WHITE RIBBON Day

White Ribbon Night Gala
Friday, February 24th, 2012 at 7:00p.m.

@Phillips Old Colony House, Windsor Room
780 Morrissey Boulevard, Boston MA

Created by a handful of Canadian men in 1991 on the second anniversary of one man’s massacre of 14 women in Montreal, the White Ribbon Campaign began as way to urge men to speak out against violence against women. By participating in this Gala, my hope is that you will be able to help educate men on how they can be part of the solution in ending the violence against women as well as help raise funds that will support Penelope’s Place/Health Imperatives.
