National Human Trafficking Awareness Day

National Human Trafficking Awareness Day on January 11th brings attention to a crime that leaves a lasting toll on human life, families, and communities around the world.

We had the honor to visit Hope Ranch For Women a few weeks ago and were completely blown away by every aspect of this place. We are beyond grateful to have such a wonderful organization in our community.

Hope Ranch for Women is helping women and teen girls who are victims of human trafficking and abuse by giving them a safe place to call home as they heal.

Patterson Gives Back – Giving The Basics

Giving the Basics was founded in 2011 in Kansas City on the premise that no one should go without the basic items needed to be clean and live a normal life.  Basic hygiene items such as soap, shampoo, deodorant, toilet paper, and toothpaste are essential for human dignity, self worth, and general good health. 

Giving the Basics started it’s first affiliate program in Wichita, Kansas in January 2019 and has grown by partnering with non-profit organizations and local schools to distribute personal care items. Giving the Basics distributes free hygiene products through a consistent monthly ordering process and works with nurses, teachers, social workers, counselors, administrators, local pantries, shelters, and other 501(c)3’s and the Wichita police department to determine how we can best serve the students in local Wichita schools and children and adults in need in the greater Wichita area. 

Your help will immediately impact Wichita’s community and bring dignity, health, and the opportunity to thrive to children and adults through our hygiene hub. To make a donation, please visit: https://www.givingthebasics.org/donate-wichita

Patterson Gives Back – Domestic Violence Awareness Campaign

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and we were honored to partner with the Wichita Police Department to recognize and highlight an often underreported form of domestic violence – strangulation. If you are the victim of strangulation, seek immediate medical care, or call 911. 

The Wichita Police Department recognizes non-fatal strangulation is one of the most lethal forms of domestic violence. Strangulation is a high-risk indicator for future serious assaults and homicide. Strangulation is often underreported, leaving no signs of visible injuries. However, death and other serious long-term medical conditions such as carotid artery dissection, respiratory complications, and the risk of blood clots traveling to the brain can occur days or weeks after an attack.
