Thank you to the Sababa BBG #2552 Chapter for their support for The Shelter.

The group is a teen-led pluralistic Jewish youth movement with roots embedded in 90 years of tradition, culture, and brotherhood/sisterhood. The teens are given different initiatives, one of which is called ‘Stand -Up,’ where teens from across the international order ‘Stand-Up’ for causes that they feel passionate about. The Naples chapter chose to Stand-Up against domestic violence this year and raise awareness by hosting social action events and taking part in community service activities. Proceeds from their events and activities will benefit The Shelter for Abused Women & Children.

On May 3, they celebrated Mind, Body, Attitude (MBA) Day,” with a day full of events including women’s self defense, yoga, and mediation with discussions on women’s safety, body image, and domestic violence prevention.

The Shelter is grateful to these dedicated, community-minded young women and their service to help us prevent, protect and prevail over domestic violence.
