As you make plans for upcoming RS Meetings, please consider this worthy cause that has been brought to our attention.
This project was initiated by low-income widows who serve in the Temple View Branch. They donate generously to the following organizations:
YWCA Women in Jeopardy Program
(for battered women & children)
South Valley Sanctuary
(for high risk women & children)
Life Start Village
(a part of the Family Support Center
for homeless women & children)
Holding Out Help
(provide safe houses for escapees
from polygamist communities)
The Center of Women & Children in Crisis
(Orem, Utah)
There are two kinds of kits they assemble, and a variety of miscellaneous
items they are in need of. If you feel your Relief Society would welcome a project
such as this, the contact information is included on the brochure we have scanned here.

We also have a DVD they have given us that has a
short 8-minute video explaining it's purpose.
