Crochet for Awareness Fundraiser

Domestic violence is not physical violence alone. Domestic violence is any behavior the purpose of which is to gain power and control over a spouse, partner, girl/boyfriend or intimate family member. Abuse is a learned behavior; it is not caused by anger, mental problems, drugs or alcohol, or other common excuses. acesdv.org

50 Shades Of Blue Baltimore Stories Of DV Survival is partnering with Crystal Danette Jones and Crystal’s Closet to raise awareness and $500 or more for the 4th annual awareness event coming up in October 2018.

Starting Saturday April 21st thru May 31st 2018 we will crochet unique Granny Squares of all shades including the signature Purple and Blue for you to purchase as a donation towards the fundraiser. All proceeds go towards the event.

Voyage in Blue @ Spirit of Baltimore

Aug 31 @ 11:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Who is ready to cruise with Lady Blue! The Inner Harbor awaits you for this one of a kind Inaugural Benefit Cruise for 50 Shades of Blue aboard the Spirit of Baltimore! We will be honoring my friend Tasha Woodard on her transplant anniversary. She has worked hard behind the scenes, supported this initiative and more. I along with Tasha want to honor survivors/thrivers of Intimate partner violence, abuse, trauma or other health concerns to come and celebrate!

We are prepared to start boarding at 11 and will set sail at 12 noon on the dot! Full Buffet awaits and libations are yours to enjoy at the bar at patron expense.

Tickets are $65 payable thru the pay pal link @http://www.paypalme.com/50shadesofblue/65/ or Cashapp $Beautfifulbluu. All tickets will be handed out the day of the event! If you are not present before 11:55 the boat will leave the dock without you. Tickets not purchased before August 28th will be full price at the harbor ticket office.

We will hear from speakers, Lady Blue and enjoy the DJ and sights of the inner harbor all while raising funds for the 5th annual event. Raffle tickets will be available and prizes to be won! You don’t want to miss this event!

Attire is ALL BLUE! Casual dress (no timbs and no baseball caps, jeans or t-shirts). Patrons will receive a token of appreciation from Lady Blue for attending and supporting! As we all know, Domestic Violence is happening all around us. The work does not stop and end in the month of October. We need to continue the fight by bringing awareness and access to resources for those who might not have the access or the ability to trust someone to help them. Just because it is not happening to you does not mean it does not matter.

Tickets may be purchased thru Lady Blue now until August 28th. This is to ensure the correct tally and space to be provided. Any tickets not purchased before this time will be at full value at the Harbor ticket booth. PLEASE NOTE: A portion of ticket sales goes to benefit the 5th Annual 50 Shades of Blue Domestic Violence Awareness conference in October 2019. Your presence and support mean the world to me and other survivors that reach out to me for help. Thank you!
