Why This Mission?

Robin Bement turned experience into action—founding Army Pink to remove obstacles for survivors. She knows what it’s like to feel trapped, not just in an abusive relationship, but by the challenges that make leaving feel impossible. Her story began when her husband’s severe mental breakdown turned violent. At the time, Robin was caring for two newborns, and the danger escalated beyond control. She eventually locked him out, but fear remained.

The Hidden Barrier to Safety

Leaving an abusive relationship is the most dangerous time for a survivor—research shows women are 70 times more likely to be killed in the two weeks after leaving.

But fear isn’t just about immediate danger—it’s about having nowhere to go. Robin spent nights in motels, moving constantly, spending nights in her car with her two newborns, wondering how she could escape safely. Friends and family distanced themselves, leaving her isolated.

Creating a Path to Freedom

One night, Robin came across Peace Over Violence, an organization devoted to helping survivors. In that moment, she realized that escaping wasn’t just about courage—it was about having the resources and support to actually make it happen.

For many survivors, there’s no safe way to get out. And even when they do escape, where will they go? Without transportation and a safe place to land, freedom can feel just as impossible as staying. That’s when Army Pink’s Initiative was born—a movement to make sure no one ever has to face that alone.

A Movement for Survivors

Army Pink’s mission is to eliminate the barriers that keep survivors trapped. Through the Pathway to Freedom Initiative, the organization provides:
🩷 The Escape Club: monthly donations funding safe rides.
🛡️ A Ride Counter: tracking the survivors helped.
🩷 Key partnerships: working with organizations like Peace Over Violence to expand support.

Standing Together

Leaving is just the first step. Survivors need support during & after they escape. Army Pink also offers survivor support, and wellness resources to help rebuild lives.
