family support services

Domestic violence affects every city in every part of this country. There isn't a poster child for domestic violence. It can happen anywhere no matter your sex, color, orientation, or income.

Covid kept a lot of events away last year. So this is the year to bring them all back. One that we look forward to every summer is back. I am talking about the Harley Party to benefit Family Support Services.

Who is ready for a big party? When I say big party here in Amarillo one that may come to mind is the Harley Party. It is put on every, well almost every year, to support Family Support Services. Of course last year they were not able to go on. The party had to be cancelled.

So early on in 2020 things already hit Family Support Services hard. Their office in Downtown Amarillo had a fire. A lot of damages occurred. In fact their building was destroyed. So they already had to find a place to home them.

If I told you we as Amarilloan's were generous what would you think? We have seen it time and time again. It has especially been noticed during this year we call 2020. We have stepped up to help people. That is what being generous is all about.

As if Family Support Services has not been hit enough this year. First a fire that closed their location in Downtown Amarillo earlier this year and now this. In an announcement yesterday they have had to cancel this years Harley Party.

This is what I love about our community. Something tragic happens and we come together to help out our own. Every single time.

After last month's devastating fire ripped through Family Support Services, the community has come together to raise funds to get FSS back up on their feet.

After a devastating fire destroyed much of Family Support Services downtown this past weekend, the organization is doing everything it can to get back up and running.

Amarillo Family Support Services suffered a devastating fire to their downtown facility and is looking for help to rebuild.

When was the last time you really got your adrenaline pumping? How would you like a awesome view of Amarillo as you climb down the historical Santa Fe Building? You can have that moment and check something off your bucket list. It's time to go Over the Edge for Family Support Services.

One of the biggest parties of the year takes place every February in New Orleans. When you talk about New Orleans, you talk about Mardi Gras. Some of us have never been to Mardi Gras and never will, but that doesn't mean we can't celebrate Mardi Gras in New Orleans style and the Family Support Services does that every single year.
