Purple Ribbon Initiative
Every Ribbon Tells a Story of Hope, Healing, and Empowerment
SAFE’s Purple Ribbon Initiative honors survivors of domestic violence, remembers those we have lost, and celebrates the community members who stand beside them. Every ribbon represents a story — a survivor reclaiming their life, a family finding safety, or a community coming together to say: You are not alone.
Why Your Support Matters
Domestic violence affects women, men, and children in ways that are not always visible. Your contribution to the Purple Ribbon Initiative helps SAFE provide:
Emergency shelter and safe housing
Legal advocacy and court accompaniment
Financial support and life skills training
Education programs for individuals and the community
Emotional support through one-on-one and group sessions
With your gift, you are not only honoring survivors — you are helping them rebuild their lives safely and with dignity.
How You Can Participate
Individuals:
$75 or more: Receive a purple yard sign to proudly display and have your ribbon added to SAFE’s growing mural of hope.
Under $75: Your name will be written on a purple ribbon and displayed on the mural and shared on SAFE’s social media channels.
Businesses & Sponsors:
We invite local businesses to join the Purple Ribbon Initiative through our sponsorship tiers. Your business will be recognized publicly on our mural, social media, and at SAFE events. For more details on business tier benefits and how to get involved, please reach out to us at info@safelouisiana.org
Join the Movement
Every ribbon you contribute is a symbol of empowerment, awareness, and community action. Help us grow our wall of hope, honor survivors, and show that together, we can create a safer future for everyone.

Glow and Grow Run
November 15
This race isn’t just about movement — it’s about momentum for healing. In honor of those impacted by domestic violence, we’re blending the power of wellness, community action, and celebration to uplift survivors, raise awareness, and fund local support services.
We anticipate a host of runners, walkers, and families gathering for an unforgettable afternoon of movement and meaning. With our “Glow & Grow” theme, this afternoon event transforms the darkness into a radiant glow party — creating space for healing, empowerment, and transformation through collective energy, movement, and light.
