We know that 1/2 of all Canadian women have experienced at least one incident of violence since the age of 16. That woman is someone's mother, sister, daughter, friend, co-worker, lover, wife, or neighbour.
For more than 22 years, the Assaulted Women's Helpline has operated a life-saving 24/7 crisis-line service to all women in the province of Ontario who are living with abuse. We provide crisis counseling, safety planning, information and referrals in 154 languages to more than 50,000 callers each year. The Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon has grown to become our most important fundraiser of the year. With your help, we are able to raise the critical funds and awareness needed to make sure no call goes unanswered.
Join team Assaulted Women's Helpline and we'll pay your entry fee with a minimum fundraising commitment! We also have some amazing prizes for our top pledge raisers!
