Allies for Ally is a fund I've created in remembrance of my sister, Allyson, who was taken from us all too soon because of domestic violence. Something too many women, children and men are familiar with.
She was a bright and beautiful soul. When she tried leaving she succeeded for 21 days before having to go back to get clothes for her daughter that she had to leave behind in a hurry. Unfortunately, he found out and was waiting for her. This is what makes it so hard for individuals to leave. For 21 days my sister was able to be free of him and enjoy life again with her daughter.
Because of her strength. Because of her love. Because of her courage... her daughter is safe and with me now. I will always remember her and try to help those that have to endure what she had to.
If you care to help those in need feel free to donate here or take a look at my RISE UP collection in my store. Ten percent of the profits are donated from each of these shirts when purchased and you get to walk away with a shirt that carries a bold message.
Thank you for taking the time to read!
