SEALIFE FUNDRAISING GALA FOR OUR WATCH

FEBRUARY, 2020

“The event enabled us to reach an audience we would not have been able to reach and raise awareness of our work in the prevention of violence against women and their children.

We have received only positive feedback from attendees and that is in part due to your work in the lead up to and during the event as MC.”

Patty Kinnersley, Chief Executive Officer, Our Watch.

FAIR AGENDA

We’d like to thank the Engaging Women network so much for their support.

With your help our community will be stepping up our campaigns in 2016 — working together to: ensure every woman has access to the service support she needs to escape her abuser, defend paid parental leave from the new attack announced this week; and to put fairness and equality for women on the election agenda.

Renee Carr, Founder Fair Agenda.

 

SAFESTEPS

We are really happy with how the event went and want to thank you for being such an integral part of it. Thanks so much for your warmth and professionalism.

STRENGTHENING FAMILY CONNECTIONS – NAOMI ARNOLD

On behalf of the SFC clients and their families I would like to say a big thank you to organising the fund raising event and the donation to SFC.

We have been able to give out the gift cards this week and families were so grateful and many cried. They also wanted me to pass on their thanks and they were very happy.

Some said that they had not been able to buy much for Christmas and with the voucher it would make the world of difference.
