Breaking in those dancing shoes
Dancing with the Statesboro Stars takes stage Oct. 3
W 091213 DANCING WITH STARS 03
Francys Johnson and Jackie Tyre rehearse their dance routine in the breakfast room at the Statesboro Quality Inn & Suites.
When the curtain closes on this year’s Dancing with the Statesboro Stars fundraising event, the real stars will be the women and families who benefit from the people and programs at Safe Haven. Dancing with the Statesboro Stars is even bigger in the event’s third year of raising money for Citizens Against Violence, the organization behind Safe Haven. Safe Haven’s facility houses the victims of domestic violence — up to 60 people at a time, most of whom left an imminently dangerous situation with nothing but the clothes on their backs.
