We would like to extend a huge shout out/thank you to Bryan and Hannah Mavel for raising $1,400 to ANCMF from the proceeds they received from the Simcock Farm 4th Annual Car Show! Presented by: New England Shelby Owners Thank you so much for all of your continued support.
On June 26th, 2024 President Brad Cowen of the Amber Nicole Cowen Memorial Foundation attended a MOVA (Massachusetts Office for Victim Assistance) training alongside Diana Mancera from New Hope, Inc. The premise of the discussion is trauma informed advocacy in the aftermath of homicide. Brad was on of three that shared his lived experience throughout the devastating loss of his daughter.
Trainings like this our vital to take a better look and have a better understanding for those who will be caring for victims and survivors as well as their families. This includes trauma-informed support through the legal system as well as mental health support. As a foundation, the education piece is a main part of what we do as a committee, whether it is paying for someones education though a scholarship or sharing Amber’s story as a reminder that domestic violence is certainly not just physical violence. We desperately want others to recognize warning signs of domestic violence and build resiliency together.
June 13th, 2024 was a very special night for the Amber Nicole Cowen Memorial Foundation. Our very own Vice President and Co-Founder Lisa Cowen was honored with the Edith Palmer Award at the 45th anniversary and celebration of New Hope, Inc.
“Forty-five years ago, Edith Palmer founded New Hope, Inc. in Attleboro and set up a hotline staffed by volunteers. Today, thanks to supporters and partners like you, our sexual and domestic violence programs offer an array of options, support services, and education and prevention initiatives, and our reach spans 41 cities and towns throughout south central and southeastern Massachusetts!” (New Hope, Inc.)
So many incredible people and organizations were honored on this night for the work and commitment they have given towards ending domestic violence. A special thank you to the President CEO Diana Mancera as well as the Board of Directors President April Funches. Edith Palmer was an incredible, selfless, positive woman; the same can be said for Lisa Cowen. Let’s all take a moment to congratulate Lisa on such an amazing achievement.
Because of everyones continued contributions and generosity to support the Amber Nicole Cowen Memorial Foundation we were able to make yet another $5000 donation to help New Hope, Inc on this very night! This donation helped them surpass their goal of raising $45,000. So thank you to everyone that has made this possible.
We are pleased to announce our Second Annual Memorial Scholarship presented to a recipient of Somerset Berkley Regional High School. This year on May 29th, 2024 we were honored to award one student, with a $5,000 scholarship. For a second year in a row, there was a unanimous vote amongst the committee, which led us to selecting Audrey Farias. Audrey, you are clearly a dedicated, intelligent, passionate and an overall exceptional young woman. We could not have selected a more deserving recipient.
