HCWC Receives Large Cryptocurrency Donation
On December 16, 2021 a Charity Auction was held on Twitter by a community of Hedera Hashgraph advocates. Elisabeth Chase, of HelloFutureBuzz said, “The Community is honored to be working on such an important issue as abuse.”
We Must be Anti-Racist
HCWC stands in solidarity with people of color to hold accountable systems and individuals who continue to use violence and abuse to value some lives over others. We have long recognized that domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse, and racism are intricately linked.
Speak Your Truth. Break the Silence.
We are offering a place for the community to anonymously submit their works for us to share with our supporters. Your story, poetry, art, or advice to your younger self could make a huge difference in the life of someone experiencing abuse, and could even be the motivation they need to reach out for help or to process the emotions they feel from the abuse.
Providing Transitional Housing to Victims of Abuse
According to the National Network to End Domestic Violence the leading cause of homelessness for women and children is domestic violence and we are seeing that right here in Central Texas. Many victims face homelessness when they flee their abusers and are often unable to find safe, affordable housing. We’re doing something about that. Learn More
Stop the Hurt
