[infobox]84% of families that face homelessness are female-headed and over 92% of homeless mothers have suffered severe physical and/or sexual abuse in their lifetime.[/infobox]

These heartbreaking statistics prove that there are families all around us that need our help and support. It is crucial that we give back to our communities and what better way than by providing support to the families in need. When we give women and children the help they so need, we are also giving them hope.

Instead of surviving in a world of limited possibilities, we are showing these women and children that their community cares for them. We will carry them when they are too exhausted. We will care for them when they cannot. We will give them the chance to get back on their feet.

Now thru May 3rd, Verizon FiOS is offering residents of Southern California the chance to win $1,000 for their favorite charity. Verizon FiOS is the fiber-optic communications network that provides bundled internet, television, and telephone services, and now it is connecting with the communities it services while offering help for those in need.

  1. I do a lot of giving back between monetary donations, animal rescue, helping the homeless and helping individuals in my community. I hope Verizon will consider doing this for each of the states!
