College Scholarship for DV Survivors

The link is to the application and booklet that describe the requiements and all that....if you are starting over and need money for college you just may get it from this foundation, and single mothers are top priority to them!!!! They even help with child care expenses, and some other stuff if needed.....this foundation is just right down the road from me but they give money throughout the US so it doesn't matter where you live, read it and see if you can apply!!!

Advocates: See if you have any women you are working with that could use this!

Money for DV Victims/Survivors

As ya'll can see I'm off on a tangent....I couldn't think of anything good to write about the news so you got just a small roll-up....it made me think....instead of just always looking for what others are doing and reporting that to you....WHY in the world am I not doing something productive like looking for help for those already out of their situations or getting ready to leave a DV relationship....isn't that what UAADV is here for to help? Well, yeah, sure we will help those seeking a shelter to take them and assist others in dealing with the emotional pieces of their lives that have been scattered by DV.....but really what could I do to help more women? So below you have my feeble attempt.....I've found four (well, there's more but I'm still checking them out) ways to help with education money, housing money, emergency funds, plastic surgery and even housing itself. I know two of the below must be filled out by the DV shelter or organization you are getting help from already.....Where there is a will and great enough need we will find a way to make these programs work for you!!!
Advocates: If you don't already know about these they are great to keep on a back burner until someone comes to you that could benefit from them!!!

Once you click this link it looks like a blank page, scroll down, there is a brief story and a request to donate, just keep scrolling, near the bottom it tells you how to apply for this.....it's a $2000 individual personal grant.....shelter workers: this may help someone you are assisting right now!!! http://www.nnedv.org/ourprograms/amys-courage-fund/
