As we approach the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women on November 25th, the Center for Social Change & Community Involvement is launching a fundraising campaign to support Raphael House, a vital community organization committed to ending domestic violence and empowering survivors.

Raphael House of Portland is a nonprofit organization that supports survivors of domestic violence by providing emergency shelter, long-term housing assistance, advocacy, and education. Founded in 1977, Raphael House offers a safe haven for individuals and families of all backgrounds, with services designed to help them achieve safety, stability, and independence. Committed to building a violence-free, equitable community, Raphael House works to empower survivors and promote non-violent living through outreach, collaboration, and systemic change.

From November 18th to 25th, we invite you to join us in this effort to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families in need. Your generous contributions will support Raphael House’s impactful programs, from emergency shelter and advocacy to education and long-term stability services. Please find the link to donate here! Make sure to mention Lewis & Clark so we can track your impact.

Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to fostering a world free from violence. We also want to invite you to our final event for this day, that is a demonstration on the 25th November. Please find more information for the same in the poster below:
