Pajama Party Supports Domestic Violence Awareness
10-02-2010
The Golden Valley Federated Women’s Club (GVFWC) is collecting pajamas in October to support the General Federated Women’s Club of Minnesota’s Domestic Violence Awareness project.
The GVFWC will collect pajamas for the Home Free Shelter, a local organization that supports women and children who are fleeing from domestic abuse. In 2009, the shelter housed 500 women and children from Golden Valley and surrounding areas.
The shelter needs lighter weight pajamas in all youth sizes, from infant to teen. There is also a great need for women’s pajamas size 8 and smaller as well as size 3X and larger.
To help the GVFWC with this effort, please drop off new pajamas at the collection boxes in Golden Valley City Hall or the Police Station (7800 Golden Valley Rd) throughout October 2010.
The GVFWC plans to accept pajama donations through spring 2011 at other locations. Contact Dorree Adelmann at 763-231-2973 for more information about this or other GVFWC programs.
