A Year-Long Movement for Change 

Today, we launch "Bold. Powerful. Now.", a campaign that will carry us through the year with a single, clear purpose: To continue transforming lives and enhancing the support we offer to women, children, and families in need.  International Women’s Day is the perfect day to announce this initiative, as we honor the incredible resilience and potential of women, and invite you to stand with us in shaping a brighter, more equitable future for all. 

 Through this campaign, we aim to: 

  • Enhance programs to meet the growing needs of the community. 

  • Expand outreach and support for women and families facing crisis, helping them rebuild their lives with dignity and hope. 

  • Strengthen services for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and human trafficking; youth in need of mentorship and a safe place to go for before and after school care; and families working toward stability and financial independence.  

Why "Bold. Powerful. Now." Matters Today 

This year, as we mark International Women’s Day, we are reminded of the profound change that is needed—and the bold action required to create a world where dignity, freedom, and equality are for all women, everywhere. 

We are calling on you to join our campaign to continue the work of positive transformation.  The need is urgent.  Every day, we see women—whether in our domestic violence shelters, youth programs, or leadership initiatives—who are taking bold steps to change their lives and the lives of their families.  Together, we can ensure that they have the support, resources, and opportunities to keep moving forward.  

Bold. Powerful. Now. is not just a fundraising campaign—it’s a call for action, solidarity, and transformation.  It’s about investing in women and creating lasting change that impacts not only the women of today, but also the generations to come.
