GKR Provides Safe Haven
For a baseball fan, it's hard to imagine a greater pain than watching your team take abuse on the field. But at GKR we have seen first-hand the shockwaves cased by true abuse - the kind with no scoreboard, the kind that forces women out of their homes, fleeing unthinkable violence.
In 2011, the Pitch in For a Good Cause Foundation will work toward providing a safe-house for victims of domestic abuse. Our goal is to support and help people escaping violence, providing food, clothing, shelter, and counseling during their tumultuous time of transition.
As our loyal supporters continue to help us help others, we will represent a place women turn to when they have nowhere else to go. We aim to provide shelter from even the fiercest storm.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
GKR
