Save the Date for the 19^th Annual Safe Quarters  on Sunday, October 3^rd, 2021

Safe Quarters is a one-day, community-wide effort to collect financial contributions for victims of domestic violence and their children seeking refuge at Friendship Home.

Safe Quarters also exists to raise awareness of domestic violence in Lincoln and Lancaster County and of the resources that are available to assist victims.

During Safe Quarters, over one hundred teams of dedicated volunteers go door-to-door collecting financial contributions for Friendship Home from houses in the Lincoln, Hickman, and Waverly communities. Volunteers are armed with collection buckets and informational materials about Friendship Home and domestic violence.

In 2019, over $115,000 was raised.

Funds collected provide a safe, confidential shelter, crisis services, and ongoing support for families who are rebuilding their lives because of domestic violence. Safe Quarters is vital to Friendship Home’s doors remaining open to those in need.

The help of the whole Lincoln and surrounding communities are needed for Safe Quarters to be a success. Your participation will help end violence in the lives of victims in our community.

It may even save a life.
