30,737 hours: What people give to end violence in Maine
Domestic and Sexual Violence Maine FocusDomestic violence resource agencies in Maine — which provide 24-hour hotlines, emergency shelters, support and education groups, transitional housing, children’s services, youth programs, legal advocacy and community awareness building — would not exist in their current forms today without the time donated by volunteers.

Read here why they are dedicated to the cause.
