October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

On October 1, our team at Project Safeguard joined the Rose Andom Center in their walk to start Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Our Executive Director, Jody Curl, had the opportunity to share about PSG's work in support of survivors of domestic violence. We're proud to stand with such incredible organizations and advocates!

Ticket sales end on October 17 for our fall fundraiser, A Night at the Museum!

We invite you to be a part of something truly powerful—and profoundly meaningful. Join us at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science to celebrate over four decades of unwavering service, raise critical funds, and honor the courage of those we support.

Our evening will include cocktails, dinner, auctions, and inspiring stories from a survivor. All proceeds directly support Project Safeguard’s mission to end gender-based violence.

Crissy Fanganello

Crissy grew up in Denver, the middle of three sisters. Her career was primarily in the public sector, which she deeply enjoyed. She has two incredible daughters, and currently lives in Golden with her husband and their two dogs.

She serves on Project Safeguard’s board of directors for all the girls, women, and other vulnerable individuals who have experienced unwanted, unsolicited, and inappropriate sexualized interest, aggression, and force. For the mental and physical anguish society normalizes as a part of intimate relationships and the resulting feelings of shame and inadequacy that can affect us forever. For herself and others who didn't know resources like Project Safeguard existed and didn't know how or what to do to help.
