What is the Safenet Summit?
The Safenet Summit is Safenet Services’ newest fundraising event. A small group of dedicated individuals will be climbing the tallest mountain in Colorado, Mount Elbert, in efforts to raise significant funds for Safenet. The Safenet Summit was created to signify the journey a domestic violence survivor takes in the process of leaving their abuser.
Many times, when domestic violence survivors make the decision to leave, it is much like climbing a mountain. For some, it feels like an uphill battle. Some even leave with just the clothes on their back or what they can fit into a backpack. This journey is what the Safenet Summit climbers will be emulating. They will be hiking Mount Elbert with just the essentials packed on their backs.

CHANGING LIVES ONE STEP AT A TIME.
WHY DONATE?
Since 1996, Oklahoma has consistently ranked in the top 10 states for women murdered by men in single-victim/single-offender incidents. Oklahoma is currently ranked 2nd in the nation for women murdered by men. The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survery ranked Oklahoma NUMBER ONE for women and NUMBER TWO for men in the lifetime prevalence of rape, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner. The necessary steps must be taken to try to prevent the cycle of abuse before it begins.
