Who We Are

The Christy Sims Foundation was founded in response to a tragic incident of domestic violence upon its founder, Christy Tucker Sims. On April 28, 2013, Christy was assaulted by her boyfriend with industrial grade sulfuric acid, which burned her over 20% of her body and sent her into a coma for two months.

Since the attack, Christy has been on a long and arduous journey to rebuild her life and the lives of her two children. The foundation, though originally formed to support her on that journey, is now dedicated to the mission of preventing domestic violence and serving as a resource for victims to help them find the support they need.

Our Mission

The mission of the foundation is to help prevent intimate partner violence by providing community-based education and awareness programs for young adults.
