Win Ana Ortiz’s Purse, Help A Great Cause!
Ugly Betty’s Ana Ortiz has opened up about domestic violence, speaking out about her own past in an attempt to help others get out of an abusive situation.
She is partnering with Allstate Foundation’s “Tell a Gal P.A.L.” (www.clicktoempower.org) campaign, which encourages people to donate nearly new purses or professional bags to Dress for Success to help domestic violence survivors, or other women in need, get back on their feet with confidence. Purse donations will be accepted at select Allstate agency locations across the nation.
I was really lucky. My gal pal was my mom,” Ana tells Entertainment Tonight’s Thea Andrews in an interview airing tonight. “She recognized the signs and she was able to sit me down and make me understand that it didn’t have anything to do with me.
“It wasn’t my fault, but I did need to get out of it immediately,” she adds. “I was lucky enough to have someone to turn to, somewhere to go, and I worry that people don’t, that women don’t.”
To help kick off the campaign, Ana is donating her Onna Ehrlich purse to one lucky winner for telling gal pals about domestic violence.
