Lake Michigan College will be hosting a fundraiser for Polly’s Place, a center for victims of domestic violence abuse, from 2:30 to 6:30 p.m. May 31 at the Bertrand Crossing campus, 1905 Foundation Drive in Niles.

More than a dozen vendors from Avon, to Scentsy, to Simply Said will be selling their wares during the event.

All participants have agreed to a minimum donation to Polly’s Place.  Purple ribbons and ribbon-shaped cookies will also be on sale.

Polly’s Place in Niles is not an emergency shelter. It is a place designed to empower women and children.

Polly’s Place also helps victims learn how to escape abusive relationships and identify patterns of abuse. It offers case-management services, food and clothing assistance, references to legal aid, help with employment as well as inviting speakers to talk about related topics and issues.
