Nothing pulls at our heartstrings like opening A New Leaf's Autumn House & Faith House Domestic Violence or LaMesita Family Homeless shelters' doors to abused children. Abuse comes in many forms:
· Physical or emotional harm
· Neglect
· Life's circumstances
· Unexpected tragedies
There are so many different ways that you can help:
· When you suspect abuse, get involved. If it's a close family member or loved one, don't let fear hold you back from lovingly confronting the issues.
· If you find a parent, guardian or other who is causing harm to a child, call Child Protective Services or your local police department.
· You can also help these neglected, abused children through A New Leaf by :
Ø Making a one-time or monthly reoccurring financial gifts
Ø Coordinating one of our 5 annual donation drives
Ø Donating volunteer hours
Never doubt the impact you can have on the life of a child!
