Run for DV
Choose The DV Collective as your charity when participating in events like a marathon, fun run, or challenge event!
Every woman should have access to immediate support, safety, and empowerment.
The DV Collective bridges the gap between frontline domestic violence services and the funding they need to keep women and children safe.
Why we must exist
57% of women seeking shelter are turned away due to a lack of resources.
One woman is killed every nine days by a current or former partner.
500+ women’s frontline DV services lack sustainable funding.
Domestic violence support services are stretched beyond their limits. Many shelters rely on donations and one-off funding, leaving women at risk when support runs dry. The DV Collective ensures these services have the resources they need to keep their doors open.
How you can get involved
Start Fundraising
Participate in Dry July
Give up alcohol for a month and raise funds for survivors of domestic violence. It’s a simple, high-impact way to show your support.
Workplace Giving
Does your workplace match donations? Set up payroll giving or encourage your team to become a corporate sponsor.
Be a Lifeline
A monthly donation helps us provide long-term support to survivors. Just $10 a month can provide essentials to a woman fleeing violence.
Buy Silly Socks
Support women and children in crisis by purchasing a pair of Silly Socks! Every pair funds essential items for women arriving at shelters.
Host an Essential Drive
Gather your workplace, school, or community to donate funds for PJs, hygiene kits, school supplies, and more for survivors in need.
Support Shelters
Fund vital crisis accommodation and legal aid services for women escaping violence. Every $50 covers a safe night for a survivor.
Volunteer Your Skills
Have professional skills in legal aid, finance, marketing, or IT? Join our skilled volunteer network and support frontline services
Peer Fundraising
Create your own fundraising page and rally your friends and family to help survivors rebuild their lives
Hear from some of our Members...
With the number of people who need support rising every year, and the cost of providing support rising as well, knowing there is community behind you is priceless.
The DV Collective feels like having a hive of worker bees making sure we have what we need for our community, sometimes before we know we need it.
The DV Collective brings so much to small charities like Lily House. Being part of a larger network of providers has given us shared vision, ideas, and vital corporate sponsorships that make a real difference.
Your amazing delivery has arrived - thank you so much! It’s amazing!!!!!
Huge Kudos to you, the team and any partners – I know this takes a lot of organisation. Thank you for the very grateful team at Lou’s.
