Fund raising CD

Tessa also wrote and recorded a music CD to help raise funds. 100% of the sale price of the CD go towards helping women and children coming from abuse. The funds are primarily used to get them into a Salvation Army women’s refuge, the same refuge that changed Tessa’s life years ago.

You can only truly heal and re build your life when you are out of the abusive home and in a safe place with support.
