Aunque más de la mitad de los receptores de estas subvenciones utilizan los fondos para sufragar los gastos básicos de sus operaciones, otros los utilizan para contratar a personal, completar reparaciones y renovaciones, o añadir programas y recursos conforme a las necesidades específicas de sus albergues y clientela. La lista de las tan deseadas subvenciones de este año representa una inversión de $38.6 millones en el programa de subvenciones para albergues de The Mary Kay Foundation. 

"El hecho de que albergues en todo el país puedan usar estos fondos sin restricciones a menudo ha servido para poder mantener sus puertas abiertas, mantener un servicio esencial o proveer un lugar seguro y salvar la vida a una familia en necesidad —indicó Anne Crews, miembro de la junta de The Mary Kay Foundation℠ y Vicepresidenta de Relaciones Públicas de Mary Kay Inc.—. En estos 20 años, la Fundación se enorgullece de continuar nuestro legado en la lucha contra la violencia doméstica en comunidades de toda la nación. Sabemos que hemos impactado cientos de miles de vidas, no solo en el presente sino también de generaciones futuras".  

Family Crisis Center en LaFayette, Ga. usará su subvención de The Mary KayFoundationSM para contratar consejeros a tiempo parcial y proveer sesiones de grupo nocturnas sobre violencia doméstica para las mujeres y adolescentes que residen en el albergue. The Caring Place en Lebanon, Ky. podrá renovar la sala y parque de juegos de los niños, además de ayudar a sus clientes con el depósito y primer mes de alquiler. Carteret County Domestic Violence Program Inc. de Morehead City, N.C. usará los fondos para reparar el techo deteriorado de su local.

"Enfrentar una epidemia que toca una de cada cuatro mujeres es una tarea gigantesca de todos los días en nuestra comunidad —expresó Vicki Bourus, Codirectora Ejecutiva del Centro de Justicia para Familias del Condado de Georgetown—. Con la demanda abrumadora de servicios y nuestros fondos limitados, el apoyo de The Mary Kay FoundationSM es un salvavidas para las mujeres a las que servimos. Al tener la opción de usar los fondos sin restricciones, podemos enfocar nuestra atención en lo que más importa: proveer un lugar seguro para nuestras clientas y proveer programas para prevenir abuso antes que ocurra".

Cerca de 600 albergues de violencia doméstica solicitaron la subvención de The Mary Kay FoundationSM este año. El programa global de Mary Kay Inc., Belleza que sí cuenta, tiene como finalidad apoyar este programa de subvenciones para albergues de la Fundación. Mary Kay tiene un compromiso firme de ponerle fin al abuso y, junto a The Mary Kay FoundationSM, ha donado más de $53 millones a programas de prevención y concientización sobre violencia doméstica.

Las solicitudes para el programa de subvenciones para albergues de 2017 estarán disponibles del 15 de enero al 30 de abril de 2017. Para más información y una lista completa de los beneficiarios de las subvenciones para albergues de 2016, visita marykayfoundation.org.
