Community Support Continues
High Point Community Against Violence (HPCAV) is pleased to announce a $3500 donation to our organization from the Heart of High Point Fund.
HPCAV has had an almost 30 percent increase in offender contact and expressed need for assistance with food, utilities, rent, medicine and transportation in just the past two months. In the past quarter, HPCAV provided just over $3000 in assistance to our focused deterrence offenders and their families. The continued tight employment market and the end of many short-term jobs has meant additional challenges for our clients. Providing this limited assistance has strained our budget as well.
Thankfully, the Heart of High Point Fund gave us and other local non-profit agencies the opportunity to apply for extra funds for the end of the calendar year. Our organization was awarded $3500 which will balances our budget and will help us meet the current pressing needs.
We are grateful for the continued community support as we work to make High Point a safe place for everyone!
