I'm Walking for WAGEC with For The People!

I'm Walking for WAGEC, so that women and children can walk away from violence. 

Your donation will raise money for women and children escaping domestic violence and homelessness, helping to deliver crucial programs that restore safety, build financial independence and promote their recovery from trauma.

Women’s and Girls’ Emergency Centre (WAGEC) is a grassroots organisation that supports women and families in crisis and advocates for social change in the community. 

"Every night, we support 200 women and children impacted by homelessness, domestic violence and systemic disadvantage. We do this by providing material aid, case management, biopsychosocial support, accommodation, and crisis responses. Equally we seek to address the underlying causes of gender-based violence through primary prevention activities with communities and private and public entities that want to be a part of the global movement to end gender based violence in a generation."
