HISTORY
We are a newly established foundation founded in Connecticut in 2014. Through the publication of Sunrise, and the development of the Foundation, we will help women find the strength, courage and financial support needed to take that first step and leave a threatening or abusive relationship to build the life they deserve.
Why the Founder Started the Organization - in her own words:
For years, my family and friends only knew the life I wanted them to know. I hid my real life behind closed doors and put on the picture perfect cover for all to see. It took me years to find the strength to admit to myself that I lived in fear and humiliation and to take the steps to create the life that my daughters and I deserved. Abuse comes in all shapes and sizes. It doesn't matter what your ethnic background is or your financial status - it happens across all social and economic levels. We want to help break the stereotype and provide courage and support so that women will step out of the shadows and believe in themselves and their dreams.
