The main purpose is the expressed commitment from Mr. Benjamin Ortega to support Safe Haven in promoting, raising awareness and funds for Safe Haven’s domestic violence educational program.
“The first initiatives of the collaboration are focused on promoting the program. Secondly, we reach out towards sponsors to support our educational program on St. Maarten. Sponsors are very important to the foundation in order to keep any educational events accessible to our entire community. No access fees will, therefore, be asked for any of our events and they will be open for all, stated Ms. Richardson, Managing Director of Safe Haven.
Safe Haven Foundation is extremely elated to collaborate with I-Novus to organize a much-needed seminar for our community at large.
As Domestic Violence is known to have a devastating effect on many families and to have a very adverse effect predominantly on the woman, many times the man/perpetrator is neglected.
The man is more often condemned, however proper assistance and rehabilitation are often times overlooked and he then repeats the execution of his ills. The seminar will focus on assisting and providing men with much-needed guidance, moreover fathers, and will highlight the importance of fatherhood and the fathering of young boys. We implore our community at large especially our men to come out and learn new techniques which may assist you in combating your hardships but will also help with the grooming of your sons and in turn foster better boys who will be better men.
Mr. Ortega who is the director of I-Novus Innovative Solutions indicated the importance of contributing to the improvement of his direct surroundings. "If everyone would ensure to do as much as they can to improve their direct circle of trust and influence, a ripple effect will start and before you know it the world you live in will become a better place for us all."
This initiative is one that Ortega finds to be the foundation of our society. Being a father your main goal in life is to raise your children in a responsible safe manner and to safeguard them from all dangers. What we do and how we do things has a direct effect on them. Ensure that you show your values and morals that contribute to a good society.
The general public will gain more information on the various initiatives and especially that of the first initiative of the Safe Haven/I-NOVUS collaboration, The Need to Father with Purpose and Love, that will be held in August 2017.
