The Cash-less Fundraiser

by Staff Writer

Just by coming here and reading the Elementary Chef, you are donating to a worthy cause.

That’s because I’ve pledged all my earnings from this site will be donated to DesertLight Center, a start-up support group for abused men. It is a chapter of the Domestic Abuse Helpline for Men and Women which is, if you’re wondering, a registered 501 (c) (3) non-profit agency.

There is no government funding available for these kinds of orgs right now, and so they must exist on private donations. So keep coming back! Tell your friends! This is not just a one-time holiday effort; it will be the way things are from now on.

As soon as we get the website up for DesertLight Center, it will show how much we’ve collected to keep the project going.

Of course, if you’re so inclined, you can donate to DAHMW direct right now by going to their website. We’re also looking for volunteers in Maine, Arizona, and online (which means you can be anywhere).
