100 Men RISEing Campaign
2022-10-01 - 2022-10-31
Everyone plays a critical role in preventing domestic violence by being advocates in their own community. It is up to everyone to keep the conversation going on the issue of domestic violence – including men in this effort allows for more inclusive awareness and prevention.
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and you can impact the lives of survivors by helping R.I.S.E. Advocacy reach our goal of $10,000 by October 31, 2022.
You can join the movement by donating $100 or becoming a “100 Men R.I.S.E.ing” Ambassador today:
– Lead the community by donating $100 minimum
– Recruit at least 9 other team members to reach $1,000
*To be acknowledged during the campaign, a minimum of $100 must be donated
Visit our donate page to contribute!
