Letter: Freshies stands up against sexual violence

To the community,

Live Violence Free would like to formally thank Erik and Melodie Ulman, along with the whole Freshies crew, for the outstanding work and effort that they invested into this year’s annual Freshies Trading Places Fundraiser.

The fundraiser is hosted by Freshies every year in observance of Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Child Abuse Prevention Month. Freshies donates 100 percent of the proceeds raised through the event to Live Violence Free. This year’s fundraiser was a complete success and brought in over $1,400.

We greatly appreciate all the years of support and generosity that Freshies has continued to offer Live Violence Free and the survivors of violence in our community.

Support from local businesses like Freshies enables Live Violence Free to continue providing comprehensive, individualized assistance to all survivors of sexual assault, child abuse and domestic violence.
