"&amp;quot;Women need to have someone who will listen,&amp;quot; says Katie Ray-Jones, director of the National Domestic Violence Hotline. &amp;quot;We know that for about 85 percent of our callers, it&amp;#39;s their first time ever telling their story.&amp;quot; But in 2010, 83,027 calls went unanswered due to lack of funding&amp;#8212;that&amp;#39;s more than 1,590 calls per week. We can change that. Glamour, the Avon Foundation for Women and the Avon Speak Out Against Domestic Violence program&amp;#8212;an initiative that has donated more than $30 million globally to reduce domestic violence since 2004&amp;#8212;are working to make sure that no call goes unanswered from now through October, which is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Text TELLNOW to 85944 to make a $10 donation, and the Avon Foundation will match every dollar you donate up to $200,000. &amp;quot;It takes so much courage for a woman to pick up the phone and make that call,&amp;quot; Vice President Joe Biden told Glamour. Let&amp;#39;s make sure someone is there for her."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
