BENEFIT FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT VICTIMS TO BE HELD AT UVA

The inaugual Celebration Night, a benefit for victims of sexual assault, will be held Oct. 24 at the University of Virginia.

Fear2Freedom, a global nonprofit organization providing assistance to sexual assault victims, is partnering with the UVa chapter of the International Justice Mission and the student group One Less to lead the event.

Attendees will help put together about 200 kits for assault victims. Each kit contains toiletries and clothing, since the victims’ belongings may be collected as evidence.

The kits will be divided between the Foothills Child Advocacy Center and the Sexual Assault Resource Agency, which will distribute the kits through the UVa Medical Center.

The event will be held from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in Newcomb Hall.

Volunteers are welcome. For more information, email getinvolved@fear2freedom.org or visit www.fear2freedom.org.
