May 8, 2020 – As a result of Giving Tuesday Now, Womanspace is pleased to announce an outpouring of community response. In 48 hours, Womanspace raised over $5,000 from individual donors, board members, and businesses. The Womanspace board had 100% participation and matched donor gifts.
Womanspace is also honored to announce that it has been the recipient of a number of grants in the recent weeks. Womanspace has received grants from the Lawrence Township Community Foundation as well as the Princeton Area Community Foundation. Additionally, Amazon has donated $2,500 worth of gift cards.
Womanspace is still fully operating its Emergency Safe House, Transitional Housing, and hotlines. The money raised will be used for these programs and more. We are unable to accept physical donations at this time but encourage individuals to donate on our website if possible.
In compliance with Governor Murphy’s Executive Order No. 138 extending New Jersey’s “Stay at Home” order, Womanspace’s Administrative and Counseling Offices will remain closed. For administrative matters, phone messages will be checked regularly and emails can be sent to info@womanspace.org, which will be checked regularly. For more information, we encourage individuals to follow our Facebook, Instagram and Twitter pages (Womanspaceinc) and website. We will continue to monitor the situation and take directions from the Governor’s office.
