'Pamper Yourself' to support domestic violence shelter

In recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the Zonta Club of Southern Ocean County is sponsoring a “Pamper Yourself” event on Sunday, Oct. 14 between 1 and 5 p.m. The afternoon of beauty will be held at the Southern Ocean Medical Center’s Family Resource Center, located inside The Ocean Club at 700 South Main St. in West Creek.

Treat yourself to a massage, and a little reflexology – a natural method of manipulation to improve overall bodily health based on the theory that areas of the hand and feet are linked to organs in the body. Mary Kay beauty consultants will be offering makeovers, and a professional photographer will be there to capture before and after looks.
The photos will be submitted to the Mary Kay Foundation for its makeover contest. Participants will be entered for a chance to win a $500 donation good toward their charity of choice. Independent Mary Kay beauty consultants will also be entered for a chance to win a $2,000 donation, which will be given to Providence House Domestic Violence Services of Catholic Charities, Ocean County’s only domestic violence shelter. For more than 26 years, PHDVS has provided free and confidential services to victims of domestic abuse and their children who are seeking a safe haven and healing from violence in their homes.
Tickets for the event cost $20. All proceeds benefit PHDVS.
To purchase tickets, or for more information, call Pat Lathom at 609-384-0745. For emergency assistance, or to access PHDVS, call the 24-hour hotline at 732-244-8259 or 800-246-8910.
