Ron Simon is raising money for the Women's Shelter Inc. so they can continue to provide a wide range of supportive services designed to meet the needs of domestic violence victims and their children. Over 600 women and children use shelter services every year. Additional services include: 24 hour crisis intervention, transportation, food, clothing, and access to donated items. Women in the community are helped with safety planning, court advocacy, Orders for Protection or Harassment Order assistance, referrals to area agencies, support and information groups, and individual support/advocacy. In addition, there are over 600 new domestic assaults each year in Olmsted County. Women's Shelter provides 24 hour access to a domestic abuse advocate and court advocacy for those domestic abuse victims.

Domestic violence affects thousands of victims each year in our community. It is a tragic reality for many people. Some do not make it out alive. 29 people were killed in the state of Minnesota in 2010.

The only way we can make a difference is to come together and work for peace. Peace in our relationships, in our families, and in our community. Please show your support by donating to help Ron reach his goal.
