Testimonials
“I’ve never been to Freedom House, nor have I called the crisis line. I don’t even live in the same state. But from the moment I learned of your existence and found your website, I began to heal. When days were tough I’d re-read your website, watch a video, or imagine myself at your facility, and I would KNOW there was a community that would believe, protect, and comfort me. In those moments, Freedom House provided me with strength, hope, acceptance, and a safe haven. And that has made all the difference in the world.
I’ll never be able to change the 17 years growing up in a secretly dysfunctional family that remained so until that generation passed on. I’ll never be able to change the five years I spent in an abusive marriage and the years that followed as I struggled to protect my children in the face of relentless deception and trauma. But the pattern of abuse stopped here, and my grandchildren are surrounded by love. When the old feelings of worthlessness and shame creep in, I think of how far I’ve come, and I think of Freedom House – and I can breathe. I am honored to offer these funds to Freedom House.”
