Control Alt Delete S.A.F.E. 8/3/2021

On 8/3/2021 Control Alt Delete had our first S.A.F.E. Facebook Live event.

We had some technical issues but we did it, our first Facebook Live S.A.F.E. event!

S = Statistics

Since being founded on 9/2/2019 Control Alt Delete has facilitated 3147 escapes from domestic violence that have included 6395 children.

In July 2021 there were 230 escapes that included 434 children and 127 pets – who are all now safe!  Your donations have made these escapes possible!

July 2021 Escapes

A = Awareness and Awards

Awareness – Thank you to Rock Point Church in Queen Creek Arizona for allowing Control Alt Delete to have a table at your Lighthouse Summit event.  Every time we attend events it always prompts escapes because with the national statistics n domestic violence what they are; someone you know if being abused right now.  1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men are in abusive relationships right now.

Awards – 

Thank you to the Pilot Company who generously donated $300 in gas gift cards to Control Alt Delete!  Gas cards are vital to someone escaping domestic violence as 99% of all Control Alt Delete escapes are Survivors that have been financially abused as well.  Survivors may have a car but no funds for fuel.

A gas card can literally be the difference between staying and escaping and that can the difference between life and death.

Thank you Pilot Company!

F = Fundraising

We had some issues getting board member John on our live feed but in true board member fashion, John recorded his portion on F for fundraising.

Every nonprofit relies on fundraising to provide services.  For our small grassroots charity it is how we have managed to facilitate 3147 escapes from domestic violence.  Watch John’s video for a few ways to help save lives:

E = Education and Engaging

Education – 

Control Alt Delete volunteer Clair put together some amazing information on keeping children learning during traumatic events.

Helping Children Learn

Here are some wonderful FREE resources Clair found as well:

Resources – FREE

Engaging – 

Control Alt Delete gives out BIN Bins to every in-person escape.  A BIN Bin is a basket full of hygiene items and essentials.  We rely on our community to hold donation drives for the items we add to the bins.

Volunteer Peter shared his experiences in being on escapes and the reactions to getting a BIN Bin.  These baskets allow Survivors dignity in not having to ask for essentials as many Survivors flee with nothing but what they have on.

We hope to have Control Alt Delete S.A.F.E. Live events each month on the 3rd of the month at 6:00pm.

With your help we are creating a Society of Survivors – one escape at a time!

Control Alt Delete removes the barriers that often keep people in unsafe domestic violence environments.  We bridge the gap in services and help in that immediate time of need providing one time assistance with services such as gas gift cards, cab rides, bus tickets, hotel rooms and new locks and security measures for homes where Survivors will be staying.
