URGENT NEED: BABY CARRIER BACKPACK

Sometimes, the smallest items make a very big difference.

S.A.F.E. House currently has an urgent need for a baby carrier backpack to help support a parent and child in our care. For victims of intimate partner domestic violence who are rebuilding safety and stability, practical items like this can make everyday life a little easier.

If you have a new or gently used baby carrier backpack you would be willing to donate, please call us anytime at (505) 247-4219.

Your generosity helps provide comfort, support, and hope when it’s needed most.

💜 We Appreciate Our Thrift Store Donors! 💜

Thank you to every generous community member who has donated to the S.A.F.E. House Thriftique over the past several months. Your clothing, household items, and treasures help stock our thrift store — and every purchase directly supports survivors of domestic violence.

If you haven't visited our thrift store, Thriftique, please stop by! Our address is 6001 Lomas Blvd. NE, Suite Q (NW corner of Lomas & San Pedro, next to Goodwill), in Albuquerque. Hope to see you soon!

School’s Out… and We're Celebrating!

THIS Thursday, June 4, S.A.F.E. House will be holding a special End-of-the-School-Year Celebration for the residents and children staying at our shelter — and we’d love your help making it extra sweet.

We are currently seeking donations of cupcakes, pastries, or other sweet treats to help us celebrate this important milestone and bring a little extra joy to families healing from intimate partner domestic violence.

To help us prepare, we kindly ask that donations be delivered by (TOMORROW) Wednesday, June 3. (We can pick them up, too!)

If you’d like to contribute, please contact:

Thank you for helping create moments of joy, celebration, and normalcy for the families we serve.

DID YOU KNOW?

Intimate partner domestic violence can happen in any relationship — regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.

During Pride Month, it’s important to recognize that LGBTQ+ individuals often experience intimate partner domestic violence at equal or higher rates than heterosexual individuals. In fact, nearly 61% of bisexual women and 44% of le***an women report experiencing intimate partner violence in their lifetime.

Everyone deserves relationships built on safety, dignity, and respect — and everyone deserves access to support.

If you or someone you know needs help, S.A.F.E. House is here 24/7. Crisis Hotline: (505) 247-4219
