Heels to Heal,
incorporated in 2009, is now a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization
that raises donations to help victims of sexual assault and
rape. Organized by a dedicated team of directors and
volunteers, Heels to Heal, Inc seeks the support of the
community in the form of volunteers and monetary donations.
Donations are used to provide victims, who may otherwise suffer
in silence, the medical and emotional help that they need during
their time of crisis.
Through private and corporate donations
along with charity events, Heels to Heal, Inc helps to make a
positive difference in the lives of sexual assault victims. It
is the mission of our organization to give every victim the
means necessary to start their recovery process and to help
raise awareness in an effort to lower the occurrence of this
violent crime.
Additionally, by self-
educating ourselves and others on the devastating effects or
statistics of such a horrific crime, “Heels to Heal” makes an
effort to help victims understand that they can get help and
have “a voice” to “stand up” against their attacker/rapist.
The
Victims must realize that they have the choice and power to go
through proper legal action in court and not let the rapist walk
free. Through effective counseling and therapy, victims can be
guided through their frightening experience and have the
confidence to seek justice against their offender.
