Thanks to businesses, organizations and individuals, Friendship Home (friendshiphome.org) provided Thanksgiving meals and gifts to survivors served at Friendship Home this holiday season. Friendship Home appreciates all the Lincoln community does to support domestic violence survivors year-round, especially during the holidays. Your generosity gives hope and holiday spirit to survivors.

The holidays can seem impossible for a survivor of domestic violence. At Friendship Home, they strive to make the lives of those we serve easier. Every survivor and their children receive Christmas gifts donated by generous community members. This year, multiple families received presents and holiday cheer. Because so many presents are received each year, they can provide birthdays and various gifts to residents throughout the year. The team at Friendship Home could not do this without your generosity.

Friendship Home provides crisis services, emergency shelter and transitional housing to victims of domestic violence and their children. If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, please call Friendship Home’s 24/7 crisis line at (402) 437-9302. To learn more, visit friendshiphome.org.
