Light A Candle for Victims of Domestic Violence

One and three women are being affected by domestic violence. Some of them are covering the scars with makeup and hiding behind self-improvement guides. How to Books Online (HTBO) Marketer Nicholl McGuire, 32, knows first hand the affects of mental and physical abuse, because she is a survivor. Oftentimes, they are looking to escape the pain. They tend to blame themselves and feel ashamed, so they dont tell anyone. The Pittsburgh native says, Those around them who know about the abuse dont say anything for fear of retaliation or because they are victims.

So with the help of Beauty Sales Representative Melissa McGuire, 28, (also her sister) she is assisting with promoting a fundraiser, started by the Avon Foundation, to encourage people from the east coast to the west coast to speak out against domestic violence. Supporters would not have to attend an event, march or anything else except donate their dollars to a candle or bracelet with the message, Speak Out, says Melissa, who currently lives in Wilkinsburg. Once they receive the item they should display it publicly or light it at their home, workplace or business so that people can ask questions about it. Be prepared to say that you are encouraging people to speak out against domestic violence and offer them the opportunity to help, says Nicholl. The decorated candle is only $6.50 and a bracelet is only $3 they both come with a free domestic violence resource guide and 100% of the net proceeds goes to support the cause.

How to Books Online, Inc., a brand new business just begun this year, provides internet books from romance to caring for pets and software for movie, music and game downloads. HTBO volunteers provide advice in family and relationship matters and assists businesses in internet marketing.
