In 2005, Domestic Violence LLC was previously known as Domestic Violence Inc until it was renamed in 2020 by Yolanda Jones, the CEO and survivor of child abuse and domestic violence; as she saw a much greater need in helping to fund other 501c and private abuse agencies that, were struggling to keep their doors open during the COVID Pandemic. As a result, and due to inconsistent funding or sponsorships, Ms. Jones took it upon her self to fund annual fundraising - charitable events by using her own; then, work income along with her service connected VA disability.
Fortunately, being of service to others never stopped her, as she's helped fund travel and hotel expenses for several speakers and guests arriving over a 50 miles radius. Since 2020 to present, Ms. Jones has continously and selflessly funded 90% of the annual fundraising gala events; as well as, have awarded chosen recipient(s) from several 501c's and private abuse agencies with donations, to help keep their doors open. Ms. Jones gives her Thanks and Praises to God and to the many disabled veteran colleagues, family & volunteers who graciously provide their assistance(s) each year.
The organization has recently been rebranded to, Generational Wealth Education and Awareness Foundation. Under a new transformation, it will allow futher development into exploring new markets of areas to better serve all victims of abuse. Generational Wealth Education and Awareness Foundation Advocates, Inspires, Empowers, and Educates abused victims and survivors, while transitioning and coroborating with other affiliates' to offer additional services; to help victims and survivors regain their Self-Esteem & Self-Worth. Fortunately, through Financial Management and Preparaion, this will allow victims and survivors to become sustainable and self-sufficient, "Post- Abuse". So, as we look forward in continuing to be a Blessing to other abused agencies; through our philanthropy endeavors along with rebranding, we're excited about bringing back our online store, where customers can purchase our custom design items.
