BE A WORKPLACE CHAMPION
Champion women’s safety at work by stepping up, rallying your colleagues and joining the movement. One in six women in the Australian workforce have experienced domestic violence, and Walking for WAGEC together shows the community that your workplace supports positive social change and safety for all.
Workplace Champion’s will receive additional support and extra resources from the WAGEC Team to make sure you start your fundraising journey off on the right foot
MAKE AN IMPACT
On average, a woman is killed by an intimate partner every 6 days. By choosing to walk with your workplace, you and your co-workers can help us build safer futures and stop violence before it starts. All donations to Walk for WAGEC go towards funding crucial programs for women and children in crisis and supporting their safety, wellbeing and recovery.
All donations over $2 to Walk for WAGEC are tax-deductible.

Testimonial
“Walk for WAGEC is an amazing show of love and support from our community. It brings together people from all walks of life in a beautiful sea of sunflower yellow and lavender purple, all celebrating the amazing work the team at WAGEC commit themselves to each and every day. This work is so very important to so many people, and makes such a meaningful difference to so many lives. Walk for WAGEC strengthens my belief in the good in the world and that positive change is possible if we all unite. The funds raised from previous year's Walks has enabled WAGEC to do so much more good in the world, and I am incredibly proud to be a part of it.”
