Amy Lane hasn't added a story.
We are a dynamic Mother/Daughter trio with a mission of empowering Women and changing lives. I, Amy Ringo Lane, am the Mom of two beautiful, inspiring daughters, Tai & Ashley Silva. We were victims of domestic violence for 14+ years at the hands of a husband & father. We were fortunate enough to eventually get out of this very difficult, scary situation with the help of our family & some very good friends. It took quite a few years, lots of talking & even more support to break the chain of abuse and move on. We are passionate about helping other women along their path toward "breaking the chain." We know it can be a long and arduous journey out of the black hole that IS abuse & that help comes, sometimes in unexpected ways.
Women's shelters provide a safe haven for Women & their
children. They provide confidential temporary lodging, safety
planning, victims advocate services, help with community services,
transportation, counseling services, & peace of mind. It's so
important for these Women and their children to be able to feel SAFE
while working to get out of the very bad situations they are in. We
three would like to support the Women's shelters in Palo Pinto, Parker
& Brazos Counties in Texas. The 3 shelters we are working with are:
Hope, Inc. - Mineral Wells, TX
Phoebe's Home (Watch Phoebe's Home video about domestic violence and the services they offer here: Phoebe's Home Video)
The money we raise over the next 10 days will be used to
participate in a nationwide program called Adopt-A-Mom. Women all over
the country are joining together to pamper these Women who so
desperately need it. The program was created because of the Mary Kay Ash
Foundation commitment to ending violence against Women. Watch
the Voices of Hope Video to see the good Mary Kay,
as a company, and as individual consultants are doing! The three of us
are Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultants & With Mother's Day
approaching, we want to put together gift bags for each of the Moms
living in these shelters. The gift bags will include everything they
need to keep their skin healthy, clean, nourished & looking good.
It will even include a customized makeup look for each woman & a
roll up travel bag they can use to carry all of their pampering
products with them wherever they go. We will also be providing free
facials to each of them! Ashley, who is a licensed cosmetologist, will
be providing hair cuts & coloring services to the Women &
their children. We will not be taking any profit from these
donations. Everything we collect will be used to pay for the
products, so we can give these amazing Women as many gifts as we
possibly can!
We are asking YOU to donate, from your heart, whatever you can.
EVERY donation helps! In order to give every Woman in each of these
shelters their very own bag full of pampering goodies, we will need to
raise $5000, by April 30 (so we can make sure we have everything in by
Mother's Day.) We know this is a lofty goal, but with your help, we
know we can make it happen! So please donate TODAY & share
with your friends. You can help us make a little bit of difference
in the lives of some Women that will be very grateful.
