“For 40 years, the Marjaree Mason Center has provided hope and healing to countless adults and children who have experienced domestic violence,” says Charity Susnick, Director of Development and Communications at the Center. “MMC is the only comprehensive domestic violence agency in Fresno County providing housing, legal assistance, counseling and education. Last year MMC served 5,724 adults and 824 through our various programs and provided more than 60,000 nights of safe housing.
“Our annual fundraiser is a way for the community to partner with us to ensure our services continue. We have safe houses in both Fresno and Clovis and offer a 24-hour hotline at (559) 233-4357 (HELP) for anyone experiencing domestic violence.”
