Ring has announced a partnership with the National Network to End Domestic (NNEDV) that will include a Ring product donation program that will benefit nonprofit organizations and tribal organizations whose primary mission is to support survivors of domestic violence. (See the full announcement here).

HCDVCC is excited that a program that started here in Harris County by our very own Susan Hickey is now going nationwide! Susan started incorporating Ring cameras in her Safety Plans with victims when it was appropriate. She recognized what a valuable tool the Ring camera could be, but she also realized how quickly that expense could add up for an agency and especially for a victim. So, she decided to send an email to Ring asking for a donation of a couple of cameras. Everyone, but Susan was surprised when Ring said sure and gave HCDVCC a very generous donation of not only Ring Video Doorbells and Security Cameras but included a free Ring Protect Subscription plan for the life of each donated device! To date, under Susan’s guidance, HCDVCC along with 12 our partner agencies, have been able to give out over 800 RING devices – helping over 2500 individuals in 8 different counties!

HCDVCC is proud of Susan Hickey and her unrelenting support of survivors! Way to go Susan!
