**This week I'm donating to [La Casa de las Madres](https://www.lacasa.org/).** Based in San Francisco, La Casa de las Madres provides a shelter and support for women and children who are victims of domestic violence.

It describes its mission as follows:

*La Casa de las Madres acts boldly to create a community where violence against women and children is not tolerated. We envision a society in which all individuals and families have equal access to basic resources and asset-building opportunities. We envision a future where safety and respect in intimate relationships are the norm.*  
  
*To achieve this future, La Casa offers a continuum of comprehensive and empowering services to women, teens, and children exposed to and at risk of abuse. We provide access, tools and support—clinical and peer-based—that strengthen their ability to affect change and break the cycle of violence.*

Its services include [phone support and an emergency shelter](https://www.lacasa.org/crisis), as well as [support centers across nine locations](https://www.lacasa.org/support).
