29. Volunteer At Battered Women's Shelters
Most battered women are involved in relationships with abusive husbands or
other family members. Lacking resources and afraid of being found by their
abusers, many may have no recourse other than a shelter or life on the streets
once they leave home.
Volunteers handle shelter hotlines, pick up abused women and their children
when they call, keep house, and offer counseling. Call your local shelter for
battered women to see how you can help.
