The upcoming Health Beauty Spa Show will benefit the YWCA’s Alternatives to Domestic Violence Program by hosting a food and hygiene supply drive for its Women’s Safe Shelter, as well as donating a portion of the net show proceeds to the program which helps women escape domestic abuse.
According to a press release, approximately 15,000 domestic violence calls per year are made to Spokane’s 911 emergency system. Thirty-seven percent of women treated in the emergency room are domestic violence victims, and one in three women report being physically or sexually abused at some point in their lives.
Paid admission to the Health Beauty Spa Show includes access to discounted services, including massage, skin care, anti-aging treatments, hair removal, manicures, hairstyles and facials. The sample spa treatments will be available for $5 each mini-treatment. Admission is $7 or $5 with a donation of a non-perishable food or hygiene item for the YWCA Domestic Violence Safe Shelter.
The event is being held Saturday and Sunday January 5-6, 2013 in the Spokane Community College Lair. Admission and spa treatments may be purchased at the door.
