RESPOND Inc., one of the BBF’s 25 grantee
organizations, is holding a Holiday Needs Drive for the survivors of
domestic violence. Instead of traditional gifts, the organization is asking for
items to fulfill basic needs, including toiletries, sheets, blankets, gift cards
to grocery stores and pharmacies and much more. To donate items, contact Kristen
Rice at RESPOND kristen@respondinc.org or call
617-625-5996.
In 2011 year, the BBF granted $1.1 million dollars to 25 legal services
organizations providing a wide variety of core legal services – from domestic
violence and immigration to housing and homelessness. For more information on
