$5,000 Goal
We are a small organization with a big heart. In the past six years we have distributed monetary gifts of over $20,500 indirectly and directly to advocacy agencies in support of survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. We honor survivors and advocacy agencies throughout the year but mostly during our annual event that is held on the second Saturday in May of each year. We call it the Survivors' Luncheon. This is our approach of giving back to the community and putting a huge dent in domestic violence and sexual assault financially, as we raise financial support, awareness, and stand against these issues in the Southern sector of Dallas County. The Survivors' Luncheon is held in Duncanville, TX at the Hilton Garden Inn. We have impacted over 500 individuals and helped the community to become more aware of the need to help these families and stand against the violence. Everyone leaves our event informed and empowered. A diverse group attends the Survivors' Luncheon. As we grow, future events will be geared more toward providing resources and may also include seminars and workshops. Please join us in this endeavor.
Our one-day North Texas Giving Day fundraising goal is $5,000.00. We encourage you to make a generous donation and STAND with us to help our community to thrive. So JOIN US in the fight against domestic violence. To learn more about us visit our website www.anniesgiftsoflove.org, or facebook.com/anniesgiftsoflove. Thanks in advance for your generous donation.
Annie's Gifts of Love Charitable Foundation, Inc. was established in 2015 in memory of Annie Bell Cage, who lived in domestic violence for 25 years. Our mission is to impact the community by raising awareness of domestic violence and sexual assault, by encouraging survivors and those who advocate for them, and by serving as a funding source for advocacy agencies primarily in the Southern sector of Dallas County. Our ultimate goal is to help eradicate family violence one survivor at a time. This is accomplished as we assist indirectly in rebuilding the lives of survivors by providing tangible resources through our survivors' luncheon and financial assistance to those agencies who are in the trenches offering hope and healing to a growing number of women and families who need their services. The need to provide hope and healing is great in America and the world as one in four women are touched by domestic violence every day. Therefore, the need to help these families rebuild their lives is a never-ending challenge. Thus, we have a tremendous opportunity to make a huge impact in the under served area of Dallas County. Please join us with your generous gift.
We raise financial support to accomplish our mission. We do not have staff. So all work is done by volunteers. We need $5,000.00 to keep us strong, as we plan to sponsor the 2023 Survivors' Luncheon and continue to give gifts to advocacy agencies who need financial help.
Each year we underwrite the cost for a Free Survivors’ Luncheon. We average 85 attendees over the past 6 years. We also made gift distributions to agencies in the southern section of Dallas County. In 2022 we distributed $3,000 to organizations to help survivors live abuse free. We spent $2,000 on marketing, give away items and related costs. We would love to replenish our funds so that we can underwrite the 2023 Survivors’ luncheon. Our goal is to replenish our funds so that our mission continues.
