The Otto Bremer Foundation, majority owner of Bremer Bank, recently awarded $65,300.00 to Someplace Safe, based in Fergus Falls, MN.

The funds will be used to help create a comprehensive fund development program to support and sustain services for victims and survivors of violence, abuse and crime throughout Someplace Safe’s service region, including Big Stone, Douglas, Grant, Ottertail, Pope, Stevens, Traverse and Wilkin counties.

Becki Jordan, Director of Development for the agency, will head up this initiative, with help from staff and the Board of Directors.

Founded in 1979, Someplace Safe is a nonprofit organization working to eliminate violence and oppression in West Central Minnesota and beyond.
