BIG DAY OF GIVING: 24 hours to Give to the Partnership!
Beginning at Midnight, 12:00 a.m., on May 3rd
Donate to the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence on May 3rd!
In California:
8.3 million are affected by intimate partner violence [1]
8.2% of 11th graders have experienced physical dating violence [2]
Be part of the solution: Donate to the largest network in the state dedicated to ending domestic violence.
The BIG Day of Giving is fast approaching! In just
one week, the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence
(the Partnership) will launch its first BIG Day of Giving
campaign. A 24-hour online event, the Big Day of Giving is the
most expansive project in the Sacramento region dedicated to
raising funds for local nonprofits. And with prize challenges and
incentive funds from corporate sponsors, your donation is
stretched to maximize its impact. This year’s Big Day of Giving
is poised to reach the largest goal yet for the Sacramento
region’s nonprofit sector: $6M in 24 hours from 30,000
donors.
Your donation can help us end domestic violence in California.
With your support, we plan to:
- Invest in events like Policy Advocacy Day—the largest gathering in our state dedicated to advancing bills that improve the lives of survivors and prevent domestic violence.
- Build the capacity of California-based domestic violence advocates to serve a wide range of communities with effective prevention and intervention strategies.
- Use media advocacy to get the attention of policy makers and individuals alike, promoting proven solutions that create the culture shift we need to end domestic violence.
Please help us meet these important objectives! Here’s how you can help on May 3rd:
1.) On May 3rd, make a donation (starting as small as $25) to the Partnership.
2.) Spread the word. Tell your friends, post on Facebook, and tweet about it. This is an opportunity to be part of something really big. Help us get there!
