You are cordially invited to the 17th Annual Domestic Violence Solutions' (DVS) Brunch, an event that promises to be both inspiring and transformative.

Join us on Sunday, October 12, at the elegant Mar Monte Hotel as we explore themes of resilience, identity beyond trauma, and empowerment.

This prestigious gathering offers an excellent opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and support a cause that uplifts communities. Given last year’s sold-out success, we highly recommend securing your participation early. Take advantage of our early bird VIP tickets or explore our exclusive sponsorship opportunities.

For further information or to make a transformational contribution, please contact Tina Ballue, Director of Development, at tinab@dvsolutions.org.

We eagerly anticipate welcoming you to a day filled with hope, new beginnings, and the promise of positive change.

Our Administrative Office is Moving!

We are thrilled to announce that our administrative office will be relocating on July 1st! This move marks a new chapter for us, and we are eager to settle into our new space. During this transition, we are temporarily unable to accept donations, except for items purchased from our Amazon Wishlist. These items are essential for our shelters and go directly to our clients upon receipt, ensuring they receive the support they need. While you don't have to shop exclusively from our Wishlist, you can view our needs and choose to shop locally for these essential items.

As we prepare for our new office, we are also seeking the following items not listed on our Wishlist:

• 5 New Desk Chairs
• 4 New Bookshelves
• A conference table in good condition (with chairs if possible) that can seat 10-12 people
• One large L-shaped light-colored desk (with matching bookshelves and/or storage)
• One medium to small L-shaped light-colored desk (with matching bookshelves and/or storage)

Your support and generosity are greatly appreciated as we embark on this exciting journey. Thank you for helping us create a functional and welcoming environment for our team, enabling us to continue our important work in the community.  If you have any questions or would like to contribute, please email Tina Ballue, Director of Development.
