Join us at Gifts of Hope 2025: The Art of Advocacy

As ACWS’s signature fundraising event, Gifts of Hope raises crucial funds to support our programs and services, including training and advocacy for the shelter sector, increased access and support for survivors of gender-based violence, survivor and shelter led research and our violence prevention programming.  

The Gifts of Hope Gala is more than an evening of gathering—it’s a call to action. Through advocacy, we unite our community to create safer homes and brighter futures for all. Join us to shine a spotlight on the issue of gender-based violence, amplify the voices of survivors, and work to shift cultural and societal norms that perpetuate violence in our communities. 

Enjoy an art themed evening of fun, inspiration and giving, including a plated meal, guest speakers, a raffle, auctions and engaging installations. We hope to see you there!
