Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for Women on the Run 2019! Zarha Foundation Australia.
Did you know...
Violence against women/domestic violence is a huge problem here in Australia, it actually costs the economy $22 billion a year! It is the leading contributor to illness, disability, homelessness for women and children as well as premature death to women aged18-44. On average, one woman a week is murdered by her current or former partner. ONE A WEEK!!
This year a few friends and myself have decided to try and raise money for women and children experiencing domestic violence by taking part in the 4km run/walk from Grange jetty to Henley beach 7am on 24th March. If you are interested in joining our team (Amigos!) please feel free to message me for more details. If waking up early on a Sunday morning doesn't sound like your cup of tea, you can always help us out by donating or copying and sharing this link :)
If domestic violence is spoken about more openly and freely, things will start to change. If we can raise money for services, spread awareness and let these women know they aren't alone, we can help save lives.
Thanks for your support!
Good stuff!
