The Umbrella purchases safe house for Greater New Haven

New shelter expands agency's ability to help 
BHcare's The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services announced the purchase of a new safe house to serve the Greater New Haven area.
This shelter, in addition to the Valley shelter, Antoinette's House, will provide a safe haven for thousands of women and children throughout the Shoreline, Lower Naugatuck Valley, and Greater New Haven communities.

Help is needed to furnish the shelter with new items for the kitchens, living rooms, and bedrooms.
Some of the items needed include: table and chair sets, living sets, TVs, dishes, pillows, and sheets.

All donations may be dropped off at My Sister's Place Thrift Store & Donation Center at 380 Main St., Ansonia.
Please let the staff know the item(s) you are donating are for the safe house. Other gently used items will be accepted for sale at the store.

Thank you for your support in fighting against domestic violence and helping thousands of women and children live happy and safe lives.
