Lutheran Settlement House (LSH) Takes a 2 Mile Walk Against Domestic Violence in Chestnut Hill
On Saturday October 13, following a 10:00 am press conference, Lutheran Settlement House, The Chestnut Hill Business Association and the Chestnut Hill Community Association will host their first annual “2 Mile Walk Against Domestic Violence” to raise funds and awareness for Lutheran Settlement House as part of LSH’s annual Purple Ribbon Campaign. The press conference will be held at the Fountain Plaza, located at 8705 Germantown Avenue.
The event will be supported by CBS 3 anchor Larry Mendte, Fox 29 anchor Dawn Stensland and NBC 10 anchor Dawn Timmeney. Participants are encouraged to wear purple to show their support for victims and survivors of domestic violence.
Launched in 2004, LSH’s Purple Ribbon Campaign, is a three-month city-wide initiative to raise awareness about domestic violence. The Purple Ribbon Campaign is one of many LSH efforts to educate the public and draw greater attention to domestic violence in Philadelphia, while raising the necessary funds to continue to provide free-of-charge services such as counseling, legal/ medical advocacy, and education and training to the women and children who are victims of or witnesses to domestic violence.
The walk is free but donations are encouraged. For a donation participants will get a T-Shirt for the walk. To register or to reserve a T-Shirt, please call Suzette Belz at 215-426-8610 x 208, sbelz@lutheransettlement.org or visit http://www.lutheransettlement.org/
Participating business such as O’Doodles, Ten Thousand Villages, and Jahaya’s Organic Skin Care will donate 10% of that day’s sales to Lutheran Settlement House’s Bilingual Domestic Violence Program. In addition Chestnut Hill Village Apartments will waive the Application Fee to anyone signing up for an apartment on that day, and will give Lutheran Settlement House $100.00 for each lease gained on that weekend (October 13th and 14th). The walk is sponsored by Lutheran Settlement House, Chestnut Hill Village Apartments, 3000 B.C. Spa and Chestnut Hill Health Care Foundation.
Bring your family and friends!
