Summary
A representative of the Pee Dee Coalition for Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault asked councilors to support local fundraising and community partnerships to sustain services.
Wendy Woods, who identified herself as working for the Pee Dee Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault, used the public‑comment period to describe the organization’s work in Marlboro County and to seek financial and community support.
Woods said the coalition provides direct services and that the group recently established a Marlboro County chapter. She asked council members, businesses and communities to help meet fundraising goals through donations and partnerships and left informational materials and envelopes for council and staff. Woods said the coalition operates from 108 South Parkland Street and listed upcoming events and a recent community “lemonade stand” fundraiser.
Woods closed by thanking the council for its past support and encouraging continued help to expand services for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.
