A few of the staff at Premier Home Care & Hospice join for a photo wearing their V-Girls shirts in support of the movement. After buying almost 30 shirts for the ladies at the office, PCT decided to make Premier an underwriting sponsor of the play.
In an attempt to support the Paris V-Day Movement, Premier Home Care & Hospice, bought the women of their staff commemorative ‘V-Girls’ t-shirts to support the coming showing of ‘The Vagina Monologues’, a fundraiser to support domestic and sexual violence against women. All proceeds for the event and t-shirts go to the Safe-T Women’s Shelter.

“We thought at Premier, being that the majority of our staff is women, that it would be a great cause to donate to,” Administrator Chris Johnson said. ”Domestic and sexual violence is a more than worthy cause to fight for. We are proud that Safe-T will receive the benefit.”
Co-director of PCT’s showing of the play, Lisa Martin, is an RN at Premier Home Care & Hospice. Through the hard work of her and many other well respected and courageous women this play and fundraiser has become possible. Paris Texas is a part of the worldwide V-Day movement, where activists from all over stand together to raise funds for the cause of violence of any kind against women.
“We are so thankful for Lisa and her contributions to this community,” Johnson continued. ”She has worked very hard and has made this fundraiser a topic of conversation at the office. I wouldn’t be surprised if everyone one of us go and see the play over the weekend. Everyone should.”
There will be a “Walk in My Shoes” fundraiser on Sunday at 5pm. This international event asks men from all over the world to walk a short distance together in high heel shoes. The last showing of the play will follow on that Sunday after the event. Click here to read more about it.
