Each quarter one member of our team
chooses a volunteer
outing for the group and for the first quarter of 2016, I was
tasked with
choosing our activity. Yesterday, we had the joy of serving Genesis
Women’s Shelter
in Dallas. The incredible women and children who live in this
shelter are
survivors of domestic and sexual violence, and Genesis is their
stepping stone
to a safer and better life. Our role was to provide 15 Easter
goody bags for
the women at the shelter, which included daily living supplies
such as soaps,
basic first aid and even a little chocolate for something sweet.
We also
received a tour of the facility, and saw firsthand the
opportunity for success
and healing Genesis provides.
I was the lucky one in our agency to
choose this quarter’s
cause. Women’s rights and social justice are my passion, and
Genesis was the
perfect fit when it came to finding a simple, personal and
impactful way to help
women who deserve the best.
As a team, C. Pharr is always honored to
help those in
need, and we look forward to next quarter’s volunteer day soon!
