Every day, individuals affected by domestic violence face an unimaginable struggle. They endure not only physical and emotional abuse but also the oppressive burden of financial instability. For many survivors, financial abuse is a constant tool used by their abusers to keep them trapped. But there is hope, and it starts with empowerment.

Empower Together: A Year of Hope for DV Survivors is a year-round fundraising campaign with a goal of raising $10,000 to support domestic violence survivors in their journey toward financial freedom and independence. With your help, we can stop the cycle of financial abuse and provide the resources survivors need to take control of their lives.

Domestic violence doesn’t just cause physical harm—it also leads to deep financial scars. Many survivors experience financial abuse, where their access to money is restricted or controlled, leaving them unable to support themselves or their children. When they leave, they often face the challenge of rebuilding their financial life from the ground up. Without financial resources, the journey to freedom feels impossible.

This is where we come in. Through Empower Together, we offer survivors the critical resources they need to break free from financial abuse and regain their independence.

The Impact:

When survivors have access to financial resources, they are empowered to break free from abusive situations and build a secure future for themselves and their families. Here’s the impact your donation can make:

$50 can provide a week's worth of groceries for a survivor and their children.
$100 can support one survivor’s financial literacy class, helping them take control of their finances.
$250 can cover one month of temporary housing for a survivor, giving them the safety and stability they need to rebuild.
$500 can fund a job training session, equipping a survivor with the skills necessary to find employment and financial independence.
$1,000 can provide legal assistance for a survivor, helping them access the resources they need to protect their financial future.

The time for change is now. Your support will help survivors break free from the cycle of financial abuse and give them the tools to build a brighter, safer future. Join us in our mission to empower domestic violence survivors to regain their financial independence. Together, we can stop the cycle of financial abuse and create a year of hope for those who need it most.

Donate today and help us make 2025 a year of transformation and empowerment.
