Out From Darkness - Educational Music Video

Abused and Sexually Molested
The difference between being a victim and being a survivor is knowledge.
(Vickie Y. Andrews)
Women and children are equally entitled to the respect their their male counterpart receives. We cannot leave their future to chance. Our perception of what they know could harm their future. We should not make the assumption that all are informed and are aware of what to do or who to call.
The devastating circumstances surrounding abuse and neglect can obscure sound judgment on the part of the victim. They need to be informed before they find themselves in this type of predicament.
The burden of responsibility lies with agencies, social organizations, and the community to make sure that men, women and children are aware of the services that are available to them.
Together, we can make a difference.
My name is Greg Andrews and I am a member of the band Jacob’s Well. Jacob’s Well Band, Inc. is a not for profit Music Ministry Outreach through First Assembly of God, Fort Wayne, Indiana. We produce positive message modern rock music that has over the years, grown to appeal to all audiences.
Jacob’s Well appreciates your support for our upcoming Educational/Public Service Announcement music video. The content will cover drug and alcohol abuse, domestic violence, child molestation, child abuse/neglect, rape crisis, cutting, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and where to go for assistance in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Jacob’s Well is respectfully requesting your support of this Educational/Public Service Announcement music video. This educational tool will be utilized as a PSA, Commercial, and by the Agencies that provide services to those in need of help. You have been contacted in hopes that you will see a need for this information to be freely advertised by donating time and support to help bring about awareness to the community of Fort Wayne and surrounding areas. Once this has launched we would do this for other Indiana cities throughout the state and perhaps help other cities nationwide.
