Olivia and her
four children were in danger. Faced with the option
of being homeless, Olivia made the decision to courageously
escape the relationship that kept sending her to the
hospital. Knowing she needed more than safety to survive,
she was referred to Arizona Women’s Education
and Employment, Inc. (AWEE). To assist Olivia get on
her feet and support her children for their future,
AWEE quickly provided a housing referral and childcare
support while she began employment and education training.
AWEE even provided tuition towards classes at Mesa Community
College. With AWEE by her side, Olivia became a full-time
college student and small business owner. Her cleaning
service now employs two women who are also recovering
from domestic violence. Olivia and her children are
facing a bright future.
Please take the first step by considering
a commitment to become a VIP supporter of our mission
to put people back on a positive track toward self reliance
and the dignity that comes with a good job.
Throughout the Maricopa and Yavapai Counties,
we offer a diverse range of evidence-based training
and support services. In the first half of 2009, we
served more individuals than in all of 2008. The demand
for AWEE's services has never been greater, yet the
funds available to support our programs are more limited
than ever before.
Consider joining as a Tracker – an AWEE investor
who sees the incredible value and transformation their
$1,000 or more investment can make in the lives of people
in their own community, struggling to take the next
step toward stability.
"When everything
seemed hopeless, AWEE helped me create a life I can
be proud of and a future I can believe in.”
- 2008 Faces of Success Honoree Gail Rossi
