Peace over Violence One by One

By Anne Friesen

Dear Friends,

Women entering our domestic violence shelter, Serenity House, have
taken a courageous step to regain control over their lives and ensure
safety for themselves & their children. The focus in the shelter is on stabilizing lives, helping them understand their options, and increasing their ability to achieve their goals.

Butterfly Boutique Opens in October

 Friend to Friend is proud to announce the opening of our Butterfly Boutique, a thrift boutique store, located at 125 South Bennett Street in downtown Southern Pines.
