THFCU MALE STAFF DON HIGH HEELS TO WALK AND RAISE AWARENESS AND MONEY FOR NORTH SHORE HORIZONS

Male THFCU staff members volunteered to take part in "Walk a Mile in Her Shoes: The International Men's March to Stop Rape, Sexual Assault and Gender Violence." THFCU staff pledged funds and that amount was matched by the THFCU Board of Directors for a total $550 in funds raised for North Shore Horizons' Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Intervention Programs.

According to North Shore Horizons, it's critical to open up communication about sexualized violence. "Walk a Mile in Her Shoes" provides an opportunity to get people talking. It helps men better understand and appreciate women's experiences, thus changing perspectives. It helps improve gender relationships and decrease the potential for violence. And it benefits survivors – all "Walk a Mile in Her Shoes" proceeds benefit programs helping survivors of sexual assault and domestic abuse in Lake County. THFCU wants to say "thank you" to the staff members who volunteered and pledged money for this important cause!
