Greensboro Paints Purple for Survivors

Greensboro is turning purple to shine a light on domestic violence, honoring survivors and remembering those lost—starting with the tragic 2008 case of Sherri Jackson that inspired Portia Shipman’s lifelong mission. Joining forces with survivor Takesha Frazier, they launched the “Paint the City Purple Campaign,” featuring a powerful silent march and Lovefest block party to create unity, visibility, and support. Local orgs like Life Renewed Corp are stepping in with critical resources—shelter, clothes, hotel stays—to help those fleeing abuse. This isn’t just one event; it’s the beginning of a sustained push to bring domestic violence into the open, remind communities they’re not alone, and offer hope where help is needed most.
