Why support DVConnect?
We’ve set a massive goal for #TeamDVConnect – a whopping $20,000.
If we hit it, we’ll be able to support a woman and her family in Bella’s Sanctuary for one whole year.
Bella’s Sanctuary is our medium-term accommodation for women escaping domestic and family violence. We host five families at a time, helping women transition into permanent housing.
Here’s what Zoe*, a tenant at Bella’s Sanctuary, said about her experience:
“Bella’s was different to refuge because I could make it our home. I loved that I had the space to be alone with my son Harry* but could be around other tenants or staff when I needed help or some company.”
*names have been changed to protect privacy
We rely on community donations to keep the doors of Bella’s Sanctuary open. Your fundraising efforts will deliver the hope and safety a woman needs to start over.
Sign up. Lace up. Show up. Help us keep these vital services going so no one has to face violence alone.
