“Every 9 SECONDS in the U.S. a woman is assaulted or beaten” , “nearly 1 MILLION children are abused every year in the U.S. alone” and “nearly 3 U.S. women are killed EVERY DAY by intimate partners.”

There is nothing more POWERFUL than a woman determined to RISE !

PLEASE help L.O.V.E. (Ladies Overcoming Violence Everywhere) change lives !!!

L.O.V.E. works locally by discovering the personal passions (in exercise and activities) of inflicted women and children of domestic violence through questionnaires and having those lists of needs available on the website so that donors can contribute to a specific persons’ wishes by delivering those items to one of our drop off locations.  Donors may also contribute money so that L.O.V.E. can purchase the wanted items for the woman or child.

The healing starts with the belief that negative situations can turn to positive!!! The women and children who have been traumatized by domestic violence affecting their self-worth, self-belief and self- love will benefit from your thoughtfulness and compassion that gives them access to the EXERCISE and POSITIVITY that will allow them to move forward physically , emotionally and psychologically!!!

THANK YOU FOR HELPING WOMEN AND CHILDREN RISE UP AND OVERCOME BECAUSE OF YOUR LOVE. ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTABLE.

Ladies Overcoming Violence Everywhere

L.O.V.E.  (Ladies Overcoming Violence Everywhere) is a non-profit organization originated  by Shantelle Pierce to empower women and children affected by domestic violence with exercise and positivity.  It is her passion and purpose in life.

Shantelle’s introduction to violence came as a child with her Father’s anger and rage brought on by agent orange (a defoliant chemical which caused major health
problems for millions of people exposed in Vietnam and the Korean Demilitarized Zone ) and PTSD which also led him to a heart attack at age 35 ( quadruple by-pass) and another heart attack at 52 ( with 5 more by-passes).

Shantelle continued to make similar  choices in men who were abusive for several decades due to negative subconscious patterns that had been estabilished in her younger years.  She used exercise and posivitity to help break out of those patterns and would like to give back to others in similar situations by allowing them the opportunity to exercise and engage in positivity in many forms.

20 Years Later

At the time of her Father’s second surgery , the surgeon stated he would only live 2 months and 20 years later he is still alive and Shantelle and her Father were able to establish a relationship.  He supports her efforts to make a difference in the lives of others who have also suffered from abuse.

There’s War in the World

There is war in the world, resulting in war brought into millions of homes around the world from PTSD and the anger and violence affects from agent orange in Vietnam, leaving an extremely large number of people around the world fighting a war within themselves from the abuse inflicted on them within their own homes.

To overcome the adversity

We often don’t have a choice about what we are dealt in life but we can choose what tool we will use to overcome the adversity.  Shantelle chose exercise and positivity and was inspired to give the opportunity of those methods to others who are suffering the negative effects of abuse as well.
