Domestic Violence Agency Introduces Fragrance "Brave"

"Brave" fragrance supports domestic violence survivors

Family Shelter Service, a Wheaton-based domestic violence agency serving DuPage County, has introduced its own artisan fragrance, Brave, to honor all courageous survivors of domestic abuse.

This elegant, uplifting fragrance is made of 100 percent essential oils and was developed with the help of Aroma Workshop, Chicago. The 2.2 oz. spray bottles retail for $34.99.

“We wanted to create greater awareness around the services that Family Shelter Service provides to victims of domestic abuse in DuPage County,” said Family Shelter Service Board Member Joan Walter. “A fragrance can make a memorable impression in a way that almost nothing else can.”

Founded in 1976, Family Shelter Service helps victims of domestic abuse rebuild their lives and break the cycle of domestic violence creating a safer community for all. For more information, please visit www.familyshelterservice.org.
