Please vote for GiveMeaning to sponsor the Men's Alternative Safe House Project. Please consider donating to it if you can. Once at least 68 people have voted for the project, it will get hosted on the site. Note that to vote you must supply a name and email address, then confirm the vote via the link they send you.
The project is described here. Project proposal:
'From the time that my friend experienced domestic abuse at the hands of his wife back in the mid-80s, I've watched him experience depression - not only from the abuse, but also from the lack of support as he searched for services but found little. Then one day about 10 years ago, he told me about wanting to start a men's safe house for male victims of domestic abuse. Today, the house is a reality, but still needs to open. My friend and his female friend have purchased a house in Calgary Alberta. Now they need help funding it. The challenge is that in a country that supports female victims of domestic abuse through more than $300 million dollars, no dollars are specifically provided to support male victims. Thus the need for your help to pay the home bills, provide food and counseling.... and help my friend provide the support that was denied him through his struggles.'

This Is a Great Idea!
Thank you God! Finally, a place that helps the male victims of DV. I mentioned in another of my posts that I recently joined the Knights of Columbus and one project I want to be a part of is opening a place like this here in Edmonton. I'll also try to get my council to fund this place in Calgary as well. As a brotherhood, I'm sure they'd be interested. Thanks for giving us some positive news, Matt. That made my day.
