The White Ribbon Campaign Men Working To End Men’s Violence Against Women The month of June is White Ribbon Month, a time to pay tribute to those men who are committed to respecting and valuing women. A.S.H.E., A Safe Home for Everyone staff and volunteers have been out in the community over the past couple of weeks with white ribbons in hand. The petite design of these pins allows them to be worn on a lapel, tie, or hat if desired. When a man buys a white ribbon, he makes a statement that he is a man who chooses not to abuse women in any way. Several men have purchased pins thus far. A.S.H.E. would like to recognize a few of them now: Chris Miller, Jimmy Gilley, Steve Houck, Jonathan Shaw, William Sands, Bob Brackins, Eric Reeves, Bob Yeager, Ronnie Miller, Marty Main, Billy Main, Franklin Pickett and Bruce Dawes. Be on the lookout for White Ribbons. Donations will go towards the cost of providing services to women and children who are survivors of domestic violence and will help us continue the fight and increase awareness of the problem here in Ashe County. If you need to talk or would like more information, please contact us at 982-8851. Calls are confidential. A Safe Home for Everyone is a program of the Ashe Partnership for Children.
