Sometimes home is not safe

By Rafea Khattak | Project Volunteer

It's Ramadan - the Holy Month of fasting - and most people are praying and spending quality time with their families.

But home is not safe for everyone.

Some people are wishing they could escape their toxic home situation.  We're referring those households which are ones of domestic violence.

No one ever can know what really goes on in other people's homes, behind closed doors.  This project are for some of the worse situations, with the intent to help the abused Partner find a safe place to to take refuge. We are trying to find ways to help these women have the courage to seek refuge and be able to find safety when needed. Whenever needed. Your funds have been used to build anc strengthen shelter.

Maya (name changed) is just 14 but has been married to 42 year old Iqbal (name changed). Pregnant and trying to escape his constant physical and emotional abuse, she sought shelter in a local church. Your funds helped her find a safe house to live until she can learn a skill and earn a living, 

Please continue to give as the need grows, especially more so during holiday time.
