As the only provider of specialized domestic violence shelter and sexual assault services across eight rural counties, Survivor Empowerment Center provides free, confidential, 24-hour support to survivors with few other options for help.<br /> Businesses can become sponsors, attend with their team, purchase individual tickets for $90, or make a contribution in support of the event. Our goal is to raise $50,000 to sustain essential survivor services throughout the region.<br /> Members can learn more, register, sponsor, or donate through the <a href="https://events.readysetauction.com/survivorempowermentcenter/tasteofchocolate2026?utm_source=chatgpt.com" target="_blank">Taste of Chocolate 2026 event page</a>.<br /> Thank you for considering this request and for helping bring Southern Illinois businesses together around safety, justice, and healing.<br /> Best,<br /> &nbsp;<br /> Tatiana Castillo<br /> <strong>Communications Coordinator&nbsp;</strong><br /> Survivor Empowerment Center<br /> &nbsp;Mon, 13 Jul 2026 13:43 -0400Mon, 13 Jul 2026 13:43 -040007/13/20261:43 pmhttp://www.chamberorganizer.com/Calendar/moreinfo.php?eventid=572262
