UpSet Podcast Donates $500 to Domestic Violence Shelter

Thanks to the generous donations of the UpSet podcast store, the UpSet team was able to donate $500 to the House of Ruth - Maryland, an organization recommended by one of our viewers. Read more about what this contribution will do.

Thank you for your commitment to "setting people up" for success in "upsetting" situations. Each time we raise $500, we will choose another organization to bless. We are close to the next donation, so please share causes or organizations that mean something to you. Also, message us for how to donate and receive your podcast merch!

Per their thank-you note:

Access to House of Ruth Maryland's comprehensive services is crucial in helping victims and their children to rebuild their lives safely and free of fear. Last year, alone, we served over 11,000 individuals at absolutely no cost to them. Your financial support allows for:

• A safety planning session through our hotline to ensure a victim has an escape plan

• Group or individual therapy sessions to begin their healing

• Legal representation to help keep an abusive partner away from a victim

• A discrete message through our chat-line to share life-saving resources with a victim

• A day in childcare for children affected by intimate partner violence so their parent can work."
