Dear Friends:
Where have the years gone? Rockland Family Shelter is celebrating its 25th year this
coming September. For a quarter of a century, we have been providing aid and comfort
for the survivors of domestic violence and survivors of sexual assault. When we began,
our struggle was a lonely one, with few even aware of the nature and extent of domestic
violence, and its pervasiveness at every social and economic level of society. Because
of people like you, we have been able to increase public awareness of this societal
problem through our many educational and outreach programs.
Through your generosity, we have been able to shine the bright light of awareness on
a problem long hidden in the darkest shadows of shame and ignorance.
Since its inception, Rockland Family Shelter has provided counseling, advocacy, legal
services and, of course, shelter to women and their children who have no place else
to turn to.
We will be celebrating our Silver Anniversary on September 26, 2004 at The Clubhouse
at Patriot Hills, Stony Point, NY and hope you will join us in the festivities. Invitations
to this special event will be mailed next month. In connection with this milestone event,
we are publishing a commemorative 25th Anniversary Journal.
We invite you at this time, as a friend of the Rockland Family Shelter, to contribute to
the Journal at your level of comfort, by selecting a category listed on the enclosed form.
With your permission, we will then publish your name on a special page reflecting your
generosity.
Without your continued support, and assistance from others in the community, the
Rockland Family Shelter could not have succeeded and grown as it has over these past
25 years. Won�t you please open your hearts now and donate to this Silver Anniversary
Journal so that we can continue to provide support to those who seek our help while we
work toward a day when this problem has been eradicated.
With warmest regards,
Roselyn Fields
