Your financial contributions to AWARE help us provide free, confidential, life-saving services to survivors of domestic and sexual violence. Generous gifts from local businesses, churches, corporations and individuals like you help us meet short-term basic needs, and long-term safety needs of those we serve.
AWARE’s volunteers are priceless! From short-term, project-based activities to longer-term obligations, volunteers and interns provide thousands of hours each year towards our mission related goals. Here are just a few ways to help. Volunteers or interns who wish to work with those we serve are pre-screened and required to attend a 40-hour immersion training. For more information, contact Karis Tripp at (517) 783-1638, ext. 143 or email ktripp@awareshelter.org.
