This fifteen minutes short aired at HELP USA fundraising luncheon to raving
reviews.  The film not only told in a very personal way the moving stories of
victims of domestic abuse, it also effectively showcased the services offered by
HELP USA, an organization dedicated to aid victims of domestic abuses in
bettering their and their children's lives after breaking out.

The video was a smashing success exemplified by funds raised.  It also prompted
other foundations to approach us with commissions, between them the Joe Torre "Safe at Home" Foundation and Avon "Walk for Breast cancer"
