Who are we? The Shelter for Help in Emergency provides strong, wellestablished programs and services that respond to the needs of victims of domestic violence and their children. Over the years we have worked to become a resource to the whole community—a place where people can get information about domestic violence and learn ways in which they can get involved.
What do we do? Since 1979, the Shelter for Help in Emergency has worked to support and empower victims of domestic/intimate partner violence through a combination of residential and communitybased outreach services, including a 24-hour hotline, emergency shelter, safety planning, information and referral, resource assistance, legal advocacy and court accompaniment, supportive counseling, outreach to the Spanish-speaking community, and programs for children and youth.

THE DESIGN HOUSE BEGAN IN 2009 in celebration of the Shelter for Help in Emergency’s thirtieth anniversary and as a fundraiser to help support the newly opened emergency residential facility. It is an opportunity for local businesses and community members to come together in recognition of the issue of domestic violence and to support all the programs of the Shelter for Help in Emergency. Each year, a Charlottesville-area homeowner generously extends the use of his or her home for the Design House event. Designers and their vendors, assigned to individual rooms and spaces inside and out, showcase their talents and the latest in design styles and techniques. These designers volunteer their own time, materials, and creativity for the event. The result is a unique tour for visitors

Presented by Shelter for Help in Emergency
or nearly forty years, the Shelter for Help in Emergency (SHE) has worked to end domestic violence in our community. It is the only organization within the greater Charlottesville area that provides safe, respectful, and confidential help and protection to victims of domestic violence, empowering survivors with the knowledge and skills they need in order to make informed decisions for themselves and for their families. In addition to safe shelter, SHE provides a 24-hour crisis hotline, supportive counseling, case management services, legal advocacy and court accompaniment, supportive services to the Spanish-speaking community, educational groups, and allied professional training and consultation. Every year, SHE responds to nearly 1,200 hotline calls, provides 5,000 nights of safe shelter, and offers support services to 400 adults and children. The shelter is open 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. 8
in which each room or garden reflects a designer’s creative vision and provides endless inspiring ideas for the home. This year’s Design House is a distinctive home located off Garth Road in the Meriwether Lewis district. This spacious (6,000+ fin. sq. ft.) brick home is sited on a 3.4 acre lot with a blend of open and wooded area, terraced rear yard and spectacular treetop screened porch with vaulted, wood ceiling. With two master suites, a finished 3rd level bonus room (perfect for a home office or art/yoga studio), and a finished terrace level with rec room, billiard room, home gym and projection home theater, this home offers every functional space imaginable. The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen, breakfast and vaulted family room with soaring brick fireplace.
Of course, maintaining such a constant resource can be difficult. “Continued funding for all of our services is an ongoing challenge, whether it be the everyday expenses of maintaining our residential facility that houses up to twentyfive women and children at any given time, or staff salaries to provide the very necessary support and advocacy that our clients need,” said Fundraising and Development Coordinator Sarah Ellis. The Design House is a major fundraising event that continues to be successful in raising awareness as well as necessary financial support to sustain the Shelter’s residential facility operations and outreach in the greater Charlottesville community. The emergency residential facility opened in 2008. The building adheres to universal design standards, but is also mindful of the environment through its Gold LEED certification.
The Shelter was designed specifically for survivors of domestic violence. It was important that the design be bright, airy, and welcoming— an inspiring, nurturing environment to foster physical and emotional healing. It is not just walls and a roof, but a place of comfort and respite from the outside world. “Design House reflects what we would wish for everyone—a place of peace, safety, and beauty. The event brings together a team of generous, talented, and creative people who care about the issue of domestic violence… [and] provides a stage for the Shelter to bring the issue of domestic violence to the attention of our wider community,” said Ellis. With Design House, SHE hopes to offer a tangible reminder of a true home—a haven of love and happiness, free from fear and violence. Because peace on earth begins at home!

What inspired you in designing this room? I could picture a high school senior gliding down the stairs to meet her prom date. I was inspired to create a dramatic, and still inviting, entrance. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? I love the curve of upper landing cutout and the spiral of the bottom of the stair railing. Highlighting, combining and wrapping the various geometries in the space was my primary design focus. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? I applied artistry to conceal the technical design objectives. The devil is in the details; and the fun is in making sure the user never knows it! Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through no matter whether you're working for a client who prefers modern interiors, a client who prefers traditional interiors, or anywhere in between? I see my job as helping my clients transform their home to reflect their individual sense of style, maximize comfort and perfectly fit the way they live. This often means I function in variety of roles, not just designer but also: editor, cheerleader, visionary, and filter. My roles do not change based on the stylistic preferences of my clients. I hope that the end result is a space that is unique to the inhabitant, not a calling card for the designer. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? I loved working with Christy Baker at Pigment on designing and painting the foyer floor. The space was truly transformed once the paint was down—the baseboards doubled in size, the different stylistic elements synthesized, and the space all of a sudden had some personality! How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? The staircase was one of my biggest challenges, as there were several inherent design details that either looked dated or distracting. When I approach a project, my goal is to optimize the spatial envelope before turning attention to furniture and décor. But given the parameters of this project, I was unable to replace the spindles or remove the scroll detail on the stringer, so I used my trusty friend, paint, instead. Being the first element a guest sees in the home, I wanted to blend the staircase with the rest of the room so that the guest’s eyes could travel to other design elements in the space. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? I enjoy the collaboration and interaction between myself and the client, the architect, all the subcontractors, and the artisans. I love being onsite, creatively problem solving and proactively scheming for a better designed environment. And at the end of installation, a satisfied and happy client is the brightest gold star a designer can ask for. Franny Hurt extends her thanks to the following: Pigment—floor painting Sahagun Painting LLC—painting Four Quarter Carpets—stair runner
What inspired you in designing this room? Many women work inside their homes now either telecommuting or having a home-based business. I wanted to show what a potential home office could be for her. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? I wanted to think out-of-the-box for a window treatment and covering for the bookcase. I created fabric embroidered screens so the light can still come in from the outside but there is an interesting treatment. The screens on the bookcase show that you don’t always have to have doors that match the surrounding wood but can still hide the less appealing aspects of an office. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? There isn’t much technical in this space, but I would say there are functional restraints in that the space isn’t too large and I wanted to incorporate not only work space but a seating area for potential clients and visitors and, of course, storage space. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through no matter whether you're working for a client who prefers modern interiors, a client who prefers traditional interiors, or anywhere in between? A good interior designer leaves their “style” at the door and incorporates the client’s style. In doing that the designer is charged with utilizing the tenants of good design—proportion, function, aesthetics to show the clients’ personality and style. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? Typically, I personally like fairly neutral colors. With purple being prominent this year, I wanted to use a lavender which I have never used before and it was fun to see how it worked with neutrals to bring about an unexpected color palette. How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? I think the size was somewhat limiting for incorporating all the items that I wanted to show but with utilizing furnishings that are scaled down I got the function that I wanted. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? Every project and client is a different and new challenge. I love to seek new solutions and find new resources to bring to each project. It keeps me constantly learning and seeking, which in turn keeps my projects fresh and new and keeps me excited to design every day.

www.kennyballantiques.com 434–270–8585 kara@theshadeshop.com www.theshadeshop.com What inspired you in designing this room? We were in love with the bright colorful fabric by Schumaker called Chiang Mai. We also had an existing burnt orange vintage gold Knoll sofa. We were in love with these colors, and we wanted the colors to be confident, welcoming and bold. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? The two-tone walls were our favorite part. We painted them Inchyra Blue by Farrow & Ball. It has this fabulous contrast of shine and flat. Also the wallpaper in the ceiling was great. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? It’s a combination living and dining space, but we didn’t want to treat it like that. We wanted to avoid having the dining room be prominent. We wanted it to flow like a New York apartment. The family could be entertaining while dining—cocktails with friends or puzzling pieces together with their kids. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through? We like to sing in harmony with our clients. Client input is so important. You always have to listen. We like to push the envelope while still making sure we respond to their comfort zone. We enjoy making each project very personal to us. We pride ourselves on not having a “look.” It’s very fulfilling when someone is appreciative of their new bedroom or home. It’s so gratifying. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? We really enjoyed using of our favorite color the Farrow & Ball in Inchyra Blue. It was a great room for us to be able to showcase our talent for using things that are antiques, new furniture and even things that are second-hand finds—objects we found through the thrill of the hunt. We want people to know that we can accommodate different budgets, we balance using both affordable items and beautiful antiques. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? The relationships we build with our clients is truly rewarding.
What inspired you in designing this room? My inspiration was the beautiful light form all the windows. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? I love the big bathroom attached. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? I just worked on the artistry side…The only technical was the bathroom mirrors redo with the wall sconces. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through? My style shines through in my neutral colour palette, whatever the style. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? I love an empty room to decorate any time the opportunity presents. How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? The challenges in this room was that it was a small space with not a lot of wall space so floating furniture was not an option. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as a designer? I love the redo…before and after every time!

What inspired you in designing this room? With small spaces like these closets, the main goal is to make them organized and give the homeowner the maximum storage space available. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? I incorporated a new line of soft drawers and hampers that look
DESIGN HOUSE 2018
beautiful and give the appearance of taking up less space in these small closets. I wanted the homeowners to have drawers for storage, but I didn’t want them knocking into hard drawer fronts. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? My job as a designer always involves balancing the technical side of configuring the best storage solution, and then the creative side of making it beautiful and a pleasure to be in. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through? I try not to allow my personal style to influence my clients because I want them to feel like it is their space, whether it is a closet that only they see or a media unit that everyone sees when hosting a TV viewing party. I have lots of photos in my portfolio of a range of styles, and of course many clients come to me with Houzz and Pinterest photos, so we are always able to design a space that is a reflection of them. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? I overcame the challenge of having to work with a small space. It’s fun to design a spacious dressing room, but truthfully, most of us feel that our closets are a little smaller than we like, so this project is very typical. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? As a closet/storage designer, I am lucky that I have a job that makes people so happy, and also makes their lives easier. If you hate your closet and can’t find what you want to wear, then you are starting every day stressed out and unhappy. I enjoy the chance to turn that around!

Nina Crawford 434–296–3400 nccraw01@gmail.com www.mssdesigns.net What inspired you in designing this room? A new piece of artwork inspired my design. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? The large wall space was a great asset. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? That is pretty much the basic concept of design work, combining the aesthetic with the technical details. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through no matter whether you're working for a client who prefers modern interiors, a client who prefers traditional interiors, or anywhere in between? I listen to the client and their needs. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? Being able to use color! How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? I had to make the brick wall fireplace disappear. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? I love creating a space for a client that is both pleasing and solves any issues prior to the design work.

The Artful Lodger
Caroline Minsky 434–970–1900 artful@lodgerva.com www.lodgerva.com What inspired you in designing this room? The challenge of creating an outdoor space that would embrace all of the beauty and functionality that we would create for a room indoors inspired us. We did this while taking into consideration that the space would be exposed to the elements. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? Our favorite aspect of the room is the outdoor friendly fabrics and materials. They magically transform an outdoor space into a luxurious respite with little or no maintenance. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? We keep our creative vision close to mind and know that it will remain the original spark of the project. But we also let creativity unfold. For the technical part of the job we rely heavily on our all-star Artful Lodger install and delivery team, Sean Hannon and Carl Wade. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through no matter whether you're working for a client who prefers modern interiors, a client who prefers traditional interiors, or anywhere in between? Our creative style shines when we succeed in pleasing a client or customer through problem solving and creative design. As retailers with two local showrooms, we can create different looks for all types of tastes. The breadth of our lines and our long standing relationships with our vendors allows us to be both knowledgeable and multi-faceted. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? We enjoy the dynamic that happens between us as the Artful Lodger design and install team. Everyone has a voice and we listen to one another. How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? We overcame challenges by doing research, being realistic and staying focused on the task. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? The best reward is seeing a client’s excitement when we complete their vision of a space that is beautifully proportioned, livable, and reflects their life experiences and personality.

The master bedroom is an important living area of the home. Homeowners spend a great deal of their time relaxing and resting in the main bedroom of their home. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? The wide crown molding was very nice to see. I thought this was a positive added touch for the room. It breaks up the ceiling and the wall. You can see the contrast of colors stand out more, which complements the room. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? First, I thought creatively. The look I desired was more contemporary. The style selected along with the function and purpose for the master bedroom made it a successful balance. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through? My style is definitely more clean lines and simplicity. I took a personal approach to incorporate this throughout the master bedroom. I often ask myself, “If this was my room, how I would want it to feel and look?" What did you enjoy most in designing this room? I enjoyed having full freedom to design what I envisioned without going through too many road blocks, which can slow down the process. It was fun to come up with a theme for this space. In developing my theme for the room, I purposely left out the television because the sole purpose was to design the room for solitude and relaxation. The master bedroom is a place one can relax and relish in ease, while turning the world off and all its "busyness." How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? I found the wall facing opposite of the bed to be a bit challenging. Not having a television on that wall, I had to come up with a new focal point. After wrestling and playing with a few ideas, I found a successful solution, a piece of artwork that is both beautiful and serene. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? Creatively designing beautiful homes my clients absolutely love and feel good in is the best part about being a designer. The challenge is fun, and it involves learning who my clients are and what they love. During this process, I am able to discover what people most desire in their homes. It’s truly a psychology behind it all. I feel very blessed to be equipped with this gift. Equally important is loving what I do. It’s been especially wonderful working with clients who have gone through difficult phases in their lives. Many clients have shared that they have found healing in the re-designing process of their homes. This in turn makes it equally rewarding for me, for it gives me a sense of helping others through my gifts of interior design and empathy.

IN-LAW SUITE
Linden Lane Interiors
Christopher Coggins 434–529-6617 cogginscd@aol.com www.lindenlaneinteriors.com What inspired you in designing this room? For this comfortable yet functional in-law suite, my own mother’s love of gardens inspired me. In Virginia, our gardens represent hospitality, beauty, commitment and pride. I brought nature into the space to reflect this. Designers often focus on greens, browns and blues to represent trees, grass, sky and water. But we associate reds, pinks and burgundies found within our gardens with love and affection, so these colors felt like a natural fit for the in-law suite. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? Well, my favorite aspect has to be the gorgeous floral wallpaper! This paper offers depth, moodiness and visual texture with a modern take on traditional floral patterns. But my favorite design element is the “black sheep” sculpture. In-laws evoke great affection and play with internal family dynamics. I used the sculpture to hint at those visiting relatives who might stay a few days longer than ideal. Incorporating humor into design can be a fun way to add personality to a space, so it doesn’t become too stuffy. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? I think that a technical challenge is having windows not centered within the room. Even though it makes things more challenging on the inside, the reason this has to happen is because you see the symmetry and balance of the window placement from the outside façade. Because the windows are placed left of center, options such as draperies would have covered too much of the window or felt tight against the corner. Therefore, I used the cornices framing each window. They still allowed ample amounts of light to flood the space. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through no matter whether you're working for a client who prefers modern interiors, a client who prefers traditional interiors, or anywhere in between? I believe it’s a designer’s responsibility to reflect the client’s personality and style—not the designer’s style. The client frequently has an idea of what he or she wants in their home, but it may not harmonize with their home’s architectural style or look. The designer’s role is to work with the client to reflect the client’s personality and style while guiding them through the creative process. For me, no matter what the client’s design taste is, I try to bring in elements, where appropriate, that appeal to each of the five senses. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? There are so many elements I loved about designing this bedroom suite, but my favorite was capturing the moodiness of the wallpaper and pulling it throughout the space in a modern way.
DESIGN HOUSE 2018
How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? Typically, clients will not want to change everything in a space, so finding a solution to embrace rather than change is always best. An example of this was to keep the existing carpet rather than replace it with hardwood floors. I selected the colors of the room drawing from not only the wallpaper, but the sage carpet as well. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? The greatest reward is seeing a finished project that thrills the client, but there are also smaller steps along the way that can be just as rewarding. For instance I enjoy seeing a client, who in the past would have only considered neutrals, embrace color with my help. It’s great when a client branches out to take a design “risk” with texture or finish. The end results of showing a client how design, texture, color and style can be an extension of one’s self is rewarding to me. It is exciting to see such a transformation.

Sheilah Michaels 434–964–7628 sheilahmichaels@aol.com www.sheilahmichaels.com What inspired you in designing this room? The charming illustrations of classic children's story authors such as Racy Helps, Molly Brett, and Beatrix Potter inspired my design. I wanted to recreate their enchanting world of woodland creatures into the room concept.
Patina Home
What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? I love the paint color, which is Benjamin Moore Parrot Green. It envelopes the room in a fresh, woodsy feel.
Ellen Beard
How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? The two go hand in hand in design, and that's part of the challenge and reward of successfully designing a space.
434–984–2266 patinaantiques@comcast.net www.patinaantiquesetc.com What inspired you in designing this room? The large print floral fabric set the tone—casual, fun, fresh. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? The extra large chaise just says "relax." How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through no matter whether you're working for a client who prefers modern interiors, a client who prefers traditional interiors, or anywhere in between? I find mixing new pieces with antique or vintage pieces creates a space with soul and warmth, and that, along with art, and attention to getting function right, makes a space inviting—where you really want to spend time. There's enough light to read—in a chair on a bed, and there's a place to set a drink, and so on. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? It was fun working with colors like black and pink and incorporating some mid-century pieces. I don't have much mid-century in my own home but love the clean lines. Color contrast feels "up" while the pinks and corals lend warmth. How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? The biggest challenge was incorporating the sage green carpeting into
DESIGN HOUSE 2018
the design. I wanted warm colors in the room, for an inviting effect, so I searched for an "inspiration fabric" that included the warm tones like pink and coral with enough of the green to tie it together.
Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through? I think your personal values mesh with your design aesthetic and that carries through to all your projects. For me, I became interested in historic preservation and green building while studying architecture. That desire to "preserve" always enters my design projects. I mix old and new items and try to reuse items that clients have so as not to be wasteful or extravagant. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? I jumped back into the magical woodland world of talking bunnies and squirrels from children's literature. How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? Though the room is large, it's an odd shaped room with minimal usable wall space. So, I divided the room into zones, which were the sleeping space and the play area. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as a designer? My mind is a jumble of live-wire creative energy and being able to use that verve to create spaces that meet others’ needs is very rewarding. Sheilah Michaels extends her thanks to the following: J.

Chad Batten 434–974–6480 cbatten@grandhomefurnishings.com www.grandhomefurnishings.com What inspired you in designing this room? It was important to us to welcome the Design House visitor into a functioning home office that would serve the home owner both professionally and privately. We could see the family doing homework or enjoying a quiet spot for reading here. We wanted the room to be a multifunctional space and a modern take on what a home office can be. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? It is the tiny window and the narrow hallway. I was a fun challenge to use that area in a functional way for our office. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through? This room was a collaborative effort. For Grand's team it is always first about the client’s needs and desires—never our own. We provide the guidance to bring the clients' visions to life, qualified knowledge, and the ability to let them know when something won't work. When we leave a project, room or whole house it is our philosophy to make sure it is the owner’s personality that shines through. At Grand, making people happy is what we do best! What did you enjoy most in designing this room? Susan Bressack, one of the Grand team members, says, "I always enjoy the process of beginning a vision or concept that evolves through discussions with the team. Everyone throws out color and furnishings ideas, then I sift through those ideas until I can actually 'see' the room completed in my mind. This is my own virtual reality and must happen for me every time before I can make final choices. There is a feeling of peace that comes when that happens, and I know it will all work in the space.” How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? Our third floor home office space had a few challenges—one being the narrow stairwell up to the space. Traditional style desks couldn’t reach the third floor, so we opted to go with a farmhouse style table. It had removable legs to make it easier to access the third floor and allowed us a large workspace surface for the whole family. The stairwell also limited us on our options for a sofa/sectional in the room. We settled on using a modular sectional that allowed us to access the room and complete the look and function for the space we wanted. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? We love problem solving and seeing the client happily functioning in the new space when the project is completed. We are always very pleased when the client has enjoyed the process and begins to take ownership of the end result as their own creation.
Organized Design
Amy Smith 434–806–9737 amy@organizeddesignva.com www.organizeddesignva.com What inspired you in designing this room? I love to change certain elements in a room to reflect the season. Nothing says Spring to me like the color green. I knew that would be one of the colors in my color scheme. The existing reddishbrown, wood-look flooring has a rustic feel to it. The wooded view from the window inspired a farmhouse style for this cozy little room. The room has unique angles in the nook behind the door. It’s small and tucked away. Both of these things made it a great space for a small den to escape to for reading and quiet time. What is your favorite aspect or element of this room and why? The two-tone dresser and the arched window-frame mirror are my favorite parts of the room. They have so much character, and they bring the coziness and warmth to the space that I wanted to create. How did you balance having both a technical and artistic approach in designing this space? The only real technical piece for me was ceiling lighting, which wasn’t centered in the room. It’s also a drop ceiling, so I had to find out if I could move the location of the light and if my preferred light fixture could be hung from a drop ceiling. Luckily, both could be done. My original choice for ceiling lighting, which is a perfect match to the rug and window treatment, was able to remain in my design plan. Each designer has his or her own personality and style. How does your creative voice shine through? For me, it’s usually the color palette, accessories, and room arrangement where my style shines through. They seem to be the things that most of my clients seek help with and follow my lead. What did you enjoy most in designing this room? I loved having no restrictions. We are given the freedom to create whatever we want, so I always do something that reflects my personal tastes. How did you overcome a challenge or challenges in designing this room? I didn’t have any challenges in this room. I think it’s my easiest Design House room to date. What is the most rewarding aspect of your work as an interior designer? Being able to do what I love every day. Amy Smith extends her thanks to the following: J. Brian Carr, painter Ferguson Enterprises—lighting Grand Home Furnishings—furnishing

OPPORTUNITES TO SUPPORT THE SHELTER MOTHER’S DAY CARDS For the tens of thousands of women who will spend Mother’s Day in domestic violence shelters, the day will be one to simply celebrate peace and safety for themselves and their children. And some women trapped in abusive relationships will only wish that at least on Mother’s Day—one day a year—they could find some respite from abuse. Instead of flowers and brunch, consider honoring your mother this Mother’s Day with a gift that shows you care about all women. Your donation of $45 to the Shelter for Help in Emergency will provide one night of safe housing and support services, one night when a woman can sleep without fear and a child will not be awakened to witness terrifying abuse. And perhaps you’d like to honor other women who have given you love and support—the friend who has stood beside you through all the major storms of your life, whose very presence creates a safe harbor, or the sister you can call at any hour, whose door is always open. Honor your mother or another special woman on Mother’s Day and help break the cycle of domestic violence. Make a donation to the Shelter for Help in Emergency, and we will send a card to the woman you have chosen to honor, notifying her that your gift helped a woman take a step toward a safer life. A gift of $45 will help the Shelter to provide one night of safe housing, counseling and support for a woman in crisis. If you choose, you may donate additional nights of shelter at $45 each. For more information call 434-963-4676. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH Each October, the Shelter for Help in Emergency recognizes Domestic Violence Awareness Month. It is a time to remember victims and honor survivors; it is a time to acknowledge those who have dedicated their time and energy to helping end domestic 34
violence; and, it is a time to remind people that domestic violence is a community problem and one that we all must take an active role in if we hope to make a change. Throughout the month we sponsor events and activities including a Candlelight Vigil, Art Contest, PEACE Project (Police Education and Awareness in Communities Everywhere), Brown Bag Lunch series and 5K Run for Shelter. Candlelight Vigil: Held on the first Monday in October in downtown Charlottesville, this time is set aside to honor and remember victims and survivors of domestic violence. Speak Out Against Domestic Violence: Held on the first Monday in October at the Free Speech Wall on the Downtown Mall. Join us and take a stand. Brown Bag Lunch Series: Held on Wednesdays in October. Speakers offer insight on obstacles domestic violence victims and their families face as they work toward a life free of abuse. 5K Run for Shelter: Held on the first Saturday in November in Charlottesville, this fundraising and awareness event draws 300 dedicated runners and supporters of the Shelter. After the 8:00 am race finishes, all runners are welcome to stay for a chance to win one of many grab bag prizes donated by area businesses. This is always a fun and successful event thanks to many generous businesses and volunteers. Peace on Earth Begins at Home Art Contest: Area schools are invited to submit entries in our annual art contest where students create a picture following the theme “Peace on Earth Begins at Home." The winning artwork it then used for our 5K t-shirt and Shelter notecards. PEACE Project (Police Education and Awareness in Communities Everywhere): Visits with all area law-enforcement agencies dedicated to celebrating the police officers who work in our community and to educate them around the issues of domestic violence.
Education & Outreach Our mission is to end domestic violence in our community. With that goal in mind, Shelter staff provide free educational programs to civic organizations, schools, workplaces, allied professionals, the faith community and any other community group that may request a training. Please call 434-963-4676 to schedule a presentation. Volunteer Training Looking for a rewarding way to give back to your community? Interested in becoming part of an integral team dedicated to helping women and children living with abuse? We are seeking men and women from all walks of life to participate in our volunteer training sessions. Volunteers are needed to serve on the hotline as well as work as Shelter Managers, Court Monitors, Children’s Program Assistants, office support, Spanish language interpreters, event organizers and many other opportunities! Please contact our Volunteer Coordinator at 434-963-4676 or by email at info@shelterforhelpinemergency.org. DESIGN HOUSE A local Charlottesville homeowner generously opens their doors to a team of local designers and vendors eager to transform the home room-by-room. The resulting makeover is showcased in tours open to the public with all proceeds benefiting the Shelter for Help in Emergency. Through Design House, the Shelter offers a tangible reminder of the home we would wish for each person in our community: a haven of love and laughter, free from fear and violence. We believe that no matter how different the structures of our individual dwellings may be, surely they can all share that quality at heart, because peace on earth begins at home.
