Help Bev raise money

The Shelter Foundation has raised more than $51 million to-date and currently supports 200 local women’s shelters and national partners. 

    •    Violence against women happens in all cultures and religions, in all ethnic and racial communities, at every age, and in every income group

    •    Half of all women in Canada have experienced at least one incident of physical or sexual violence since the age of 16

    •    Every year in Canada, an estimated 360,000 children witness family violence

    •    On any given day in Canada, 3000 women (and their 2500 children) are living in an emergency shelter to escape family violence

    •    On average, every six days in Canada a woman is murdered by her intimate partner.

Every dollar raised goes directly to helping the more than 50,000 women and children who are served each year by the shelters and support programs we fund.
