Breaking the Silence: Running for Domestic Violence Awareness
You and I probably know someone who has suffered silently with domestic violence. It affects so many without ever being spoken about. Domestic violence goes beyond physical abuse; it includes emotional, financial, and sexual abuse. At its core, it is about a person trying to gain or maintain control over another.
My running journey began when I was in an abusive relationship, and running helped me discover resilience. Alongside therapy, it gave me the courage to leave that toxic environment. As I prepare for the Chicago Marathon, I am dedicating my 26.2 miles to breaking the silence and encouraging others to do the same.
Run Domestic Violence Out of Town is a movement to offer support and empower survivors with the belief that change is possible. Your contribution can make a significant impact:
- $25 provides a hot meal for a survivor and their family
- $50 provides a counseling session
- $100 provides a night of emergency shelter
Together, we can break the cycle of domestic violence. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. Please donate today and help change a life.
With love and gratitude,
Cristalle :)
If it's easier to donate through Venmo/Zelle, please do @cristalleruiz or my phone number, and I will donate through the website on your behalf.
