In this spirit,we will display all proclamations at our annual Walk for Hope:Steps to <br /> End Domestic and Sexual Violence on Saturday,September 27th at Bunker Hills Regional <br /> Park in Andover.This event,attended by over 500 participants every year,challenges our <br /> community to confront the impact of domestic and sexual violence.Additionally,it <br /> provides a space for survivors,family members,friends,and allies to honor those who have <br /> lost their lives as a result of domestic violence.Following the Walk for Hope,the <br /> proclamations will be prominently displayed at Alexandra House. <br /> Please contact our Development Communications Manager,Tina Bronson at 763-656- <br /> 1363 or tbronsonPalexandrahouse.orq if you have any questions regarding this request. <br /> Also enclosed for your reference is a sample you may wish to use to compose your <br /> proclamation.Thank you for your consideration and support of this important cause. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> QO_X�l � ),AO%A-- <br /> Connie Moore <br /> Executive Director <br /> Enclosure <br /> Cc: Mayor Thomas Wilharber <br />
