SafeHaven of Tarrant County

Thanks to Starbucks partners (local employees) and The Starbucks Foundation for recognizing how we are making our community stronger! Their grant will keep countless families safe from abuse at home. #TheStarbucksFoundation #NeighborhoodGrants

We're sending the biggest thank you to our friends at Lockheed Martin who spent their Project Good Turn Event at SafeHaven! 28 volunteers braved the heat to work on our shelter playground and sorted through a mountain of donations at our Berry Good Buys resale store. We're so, so thankful for the day they spent with us to help Tarrant County survivors!

SafeHaven board member, volunteer, and former client, Audria Tamez Maltsberger, was featured on NBC News with Lester Holt in response to the US v. Rahimi decision! Nearly 20 years ago, Audria and her children fled abuse at home to come stay at SafeHaven’s shelter. Her family used all of our survivor resources, including shelter, housing, legal aid, and more, and today, Audria is SAFE, happy, and a fierce advocate for survivors. We are so proud of her, and so thankful for the positive #SCOTUS decision!

🎉 We're celebrating BIG today. 🎉 This morning, the Supreme Court affirmed in its US v. Rahimi decision that domestic violence offenders 𝙙𝙤 𝙣𝙤𝙩 have a constitutional right to own firearms. Thank you to everyone who worked tirelessly to support survivors and advocate for safety and justice. While there is still work to be done, today marks a significant step forward in our work to create a safe place for survivors to exist.

We’re sending the BIGGEST thank you to our friends at ARLINGTON TOMORROW FOUNDATION for their $60,000 grant to fund much-needed capital updates at our Arlington emergency shelter! Each of our shelters serve thousands of women and children each year, and thanks to Arlington Tomorrow Foundation, families fleeing abuse will have a comfortable and SAFE place to call home during their biggest time of need. We’re so thankful to have generous neighbors like Arlington Tomorrow Foundation!

Domestic violence transcends gender identity and sexual orientation. That's why ALL SafeHaven resources are LGBTQIA+ inclusive and affirming. We ALL deserve healthy love. 💜 SafeHaven's 24-Hour Hotline: 1-877-701-7233

We're so proud to announce that our very own Lindsay Zehentbauer, M. Ed. and the SafeHaven Social Enterprise program was named a finalist for the D CEO Magazine Nonprofit Awards in the Social Enterprise category! 🎉🎉 SafeHaven's Social Enterprise program has two key components: 1. Berry Good Buys Resale Store 2. A new program that utilizes the agency's professional experts to provide educational opportunities and other resources to local, state and national agencies for a fee. Both efforts have grown leaps and bounds under Lindsay's leadership and generate lifesaving funding so we can continue offering all of our survivor resources free of charge for families seeking help. Please help us congratulate Lindsay on her incredible work! The award recipient will be announced in late July.

SafeHaven is incredibly honored to receive a $50,000 gift from the Texas Capital Foundation as one of its second annual Honors Awards recipients! 💜💜 The Honors Awards are a signature program of the Texas Capital Foundation, which Texas Capital launched in 2022 to fortify and elevate its commitment to Texas communities. Families are safer and have a brighter future because of our friends at Texas Capital. Thank you!

Please join us in sending lots of love to NBT Financial, this year's Mother's Day sponsor! 🌸🌼 Thank you for providing beautiful flowers and financially supporting the brave moms spending this Mother's Day in shelter. We are so grateful to have friends like you!

We can’t say thank you enough for answering our call for help! 🫶 This is just HALF of the donations you sent to families entering our transitional housing programs. We are so grateful that women and children at SafeHaven can always count on your support!
