News Release: Fredericksburg Law Enforcement Collects Items for Local Domestic Violence Shelter That Recently Experienced a Devastating Fire Wiping out its Supplies

In July, Empowerhouse’s shelter for survivors of domestic violence experienced a destructive fire in the middle of the night. Fortunately, everyone evacuated safely. However, the storage room with supplies for survivors and their children who stay at the shelter was completely destroyed. Everything had to be tossed due to fire, smoke, or water damage. During October, which is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the Fredericksburg Police Department (FPD) and the Fredericksburg Sheriff's Office (FSO) are collecting items for Empowerhouse to help rebuild their stock of supplies.

FPD and FSO will host two donation drives at the Central Park Walmart on October 14th and October 21st from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Items can also be donated at Fredericksburg Police Department headquarters and the Fredericksburg Sheriff’s Office. FPD and FSO are collecting the following items:

• Baby care items
• Prepackaged snacks
• Fun activities for children

** All items must be new **

“It’s unfortunate the organization and the victims using their services experienced a devastating fire. Sheriff Foster and I appreciate any donations the community can help us provide to Empowerhouse and the people they support,” said Police Chief Layton
