Events

Our special events bring together our community, volunteers and team in support of the women and children we serve through our crisis services, emergency shelter and transitional housing.

Whether you join us to raise funds or collect supplies, our goal is the same: to empower freedom from domestic violence.

Together we can help victims find the physical and emotional safety they need to rebuild their lives.

Safe Quarters

Safe Quarters will be an Online Event starting Sunday, October 3rd through Sunday, October 17th.

Safe Quarters has been a staple in the community for 19 years. Each year, over a thousand volunteers walk the city, collecting financial contributions from every household in Lincoln.

For the second year, we are taking Safe Quarters virtual! This two-week-long online event will be held from October 3^rd through October 17^th. Although Safe Quarters may look and feel different this year, the virtual event will still be raising money and awareness for victims of domestic violence. Help us reach our goal of raising $45,000!

Learn how you can get involved by visiting our Safe Quarters event page! For questions or additional information about Safe Quarters 2021, please email Dani or call her at 402-434-0167.

Stuff the Bus

^{Check back in early 2022 for Stuff the Bus Dates!}

Donations from Stuff the Bus allow families served at Friendship Home to receive the everyday essential items they need while rebuilding their lives — free from domestic violence.

Since many of these families enter through Friendship Home’s shelter doors with no more than the clothes on their backs, Stuff the Bus is critical to support their needs as they begin this journey.

For more information or to become part of this event, contact Dani by email or call 402-434-0167.

Hold Your Own Special Event

The best ideas to raise funds and collect essential items needed by families we serve come from generous individuals just like you!

Whether a small or large event collecting new items, jeans day at your workplace, an online Facebook campaign, golf tournament or other creative event idea, our Development team would like to support your initiative.

We can help provide the awareness and marketing tools you need. Do you have a great idea to help victims of domestic violence? Contact Dani by email or call 402-434-0167.
