We thank EVERY single person that joined us last week for our virtual 3rd Annual Benefit Showcase #SurvivingTogether benefitting @DlsRapeCrisis 💙
Your contribution will support survivors in various steps of their journeys which could NOT be done without YOUR support‼️
If you are unable to donate yourself, please RT this or share the link with your networks.
We thank all of you that have supported us thus far. It truly means a lot to us that you continue to show up for us and the other survivors in your lives.
Help us help more survivors! We’re hoping to raise the funds needed to help us secure nonprofit status. We will continue to serve survivors regardless, as we have been - but the nonprofit status allows us to secure grants, funding and sponsorships needed.

We see the discussions. Be not confused: the only thing that constitutes an agreement to sex is an enthusiastic yes. Not being flown out. Not being taken on an expensive date. Not an expensive gift. ONLY an enthusiastic yes, and even that can be revoked at any time.
We know that the news from the Supreme Court is disappointing, but we will always support a woman’s right to choose. Especially in the event of rape or incest. The fight is far from over.
Today is #SAAMDayOfAction! Together we can show actionable support to survivors of sexual harassment and abuse by understanding our role in ending this type of violence. Tag us wearing your teal with #SAAM2022!
@NSVRC It is important to us that survivors feel seen and heard, both those that have shared their stories and those who have chosen to keep them private. It is equally important that we all know and work on ways to prevent sexual violence in the first place.
It is incredibly important to speak up when you witness those around you exhibiting predatory behavior or know that someone has committed sexual assault - not just after a falling out. The survivors deserve better.
Happy Thanksgiving to all of you from us as AOSA, whether you are spending it with family or not. Sending extra love out to those who may be stuck facing their abusers today or surrounded by people who discredit your truth. We’re here if you need a community or resources.
We are personally grateful for each and every one of you who have supported us in one way or another. Without y’all, there’s not much we can do to support survivors. We are also grateful for the survivors who trust us with their stories and believe in our vision.
