Mark your calendar now for our Chicktime Fort Worth event at SafeHaven of Tarrant County’s Orientation.

The Fort Worth Chapter is excited to announce that we have a new charity partner, Safe Haven of Tarrant County.

SafeHaven is the largest and most comprehensive agency in Tarrant County providing services at no cost to domestic violence victims.  SafeHaven provides 24-hour care at two emergency shelters in Arlington and Fort Worth to families fleeing violent situations. The holistic shelters provide a comprehensive continuum of care for the women and children who would otherwise be forced to remain in dangerous situations.

At this time, SafeHaven is in need of volunteers to assist/facilitate activities at a monthly support group for women and children at their transitional housing program.  The event occurs on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at Pantego Bible Church and we would be working with the children while the parents attend the group. The support group takes place from 6:00-8:00 pm and SafeHaven we could utilize roughly 5-8 volunteers each month.

For the safety of their clients, SafeHaven requires all volunteers to complete a volunteer application and a criminal background check,  If you will are interested in attending the support group event at Pantego church, please sign up on the Fort Worth Events Calendar on the Chicktime website.   I will forward you the application to fill out (if you have not already complete one) and then fax back to Safe Haven.  I will forward additional information (directions, contact person, etc) about 5 days before the event.

We look forward to meeting and working with you!
