Help Now	Helping a Domestic Abuse Survivor Her Children Start Over This weekend, we received a request for help for a young family in Shakopee going through an incredibly difficult time. The mother, a survivor of severe domestic abuse, is starting over with her children after years of trauma. Due to the situation, their previous home became very cluttered and full and is now being cleared out. While they have received generous donations of new furniture, the children still need clothing and other items, as a lot of what they had was thrown away. We are hoping to rally support to provide this family with the essentials to help them transition into this new chapter with comfort and stability. Any contribution—big or small—can make a meaningful difference in their healing process. If you’re able to help or would like more details, please reach out.
