We are excited to announce our Healing the Past, Living the Present and Dreaming the Future series of Healing and Growth with Greenville Yoga. We teamed up together last year to bring you a month of healing through forgiveness. We hope you will join us when you can for our events. These events are open to everyone and we encourage you and would love for you to share these events with your friends and family.
This year we will be raising money and awareness for Safe Harbor. Safe Harbor is a nonprofit organization that provides safe shelter, counseling and advocacy for victims of domestic violence as well as leadership for education and prevention efforts throughout its four-county area of Anderson, Greenville, Oconee and Pickens, South Carolina. We will also have drop boxes at Raspberry Moon and both Greenville Yoga locations to drop off items on their Wish List.
South Carolina has the highest rates of domestic violence resulting in death in the country! In 2011 there were 1,707 females murdered by men in a single victim/single offender incident. 94% of the female victims knew their offender. 61% of those women killed were wives or intimate partners of their killers.
