How do families in the trenches of grief and despair navigate how to seek justice for a loved one? Where do families go after a loved one is missing, murdered, or kidnapped? This holiday season, a group of women  in true crime podcasting have come together to raise money to help those in need of guidance while they navigate the unthinkable- seeking justice and advocating for their loved one during trauma and tragedy. Shores of Strength is a non profit which aims to be a guiding light to those who need help- how can they share their story? Who can they get to listen? How can they raise money for legal fees?By donating to Shores of Strength, you’re helping victims this holiday season. Each donation is a symbolic ornament placed upon the homicide tree in remembrance of someone's loved one who should be here this holiday season.Each episode is a different case, a different person who should be here- deserves to be here, but isn't- and each case is told by a host of a weekly true crime podcast. Subscribe to The Homicide Tree wherever you get your podcasts. All episodes will be available, at once, on November 29th.  This is a “Podcasters Give Back” fundraiser.
