“ With sexual assault often being headline news, the topic comes up in conversation a lot. I love being able to say that I’m doing something to help—my contribution of a couple hours a month has had a measurable impact on the amount of help that survivors in Saint Louis will receive.”

Highlights2017

In 2017, Safe Connections was selected as a beneficiary

for The Home Loan Expert Ryan Kelly’s annual fundraiser,

Climb for Kids. Karolina ran a marathon up and down Pike’s

Peak to raise funds for Safe Connections. This special effort raised more than $2,000 for us!

The tenth annual Together! Engaging Women/Empowering Girls brunch was a record-breaking event, raising more than $75,000 with 500+ women and girls in attendance—the most ever. To commemorate this milestone occasssion, we recognized Dr. Jill Powell for chairing the event for all ten years, and Cheryl Kowalczyk of Ekon Benefits for underwriting each year. Now that deserves a round of applause!

In October of 2017, we felt the rise of the groundbreaking #MeToo movement. This social campaign led to a fundamental shift in national and local conversations about sexual assault. During that time, Safe Connections earned an unprecendeted amount of media exposure and handled increased volume of crisis callers.
