By SARAH SHMERLING Editor-in-Chief

isters of Sojourn, founded by Palisadian Suzanne Lowe to Sraise funds to support domestic violence services, is celebrating its 20th anniversary—which means gearing up for three events. “We started the group about 20 years ago in 2000,” Lowe ex- plained. The Upper Marquez Knolls resident, who is married to a born and raised Palisadian, shared that the catalyst for founding Sisters of Sojourn was that, through a Santa Monica-based apparel manufac- turing company, she wanted to give excess inventory to a local women’s charity, which became Sojourn. Founded in 1977, Sojourn is a project of The People Concern, which deals with an array of is- sues throughout Los Angeles, with a focus on homelessness. Sojourn is the domestic violence compo- nent, which works with a network of shelters throughout Southern California to provide housing and services for victims of domestic violence. “We were constantly sending them inventory and they kept say- ing they were very appreciative,” Lowe recalled.
