Spring 2025 Fundraising Auction

Join us for WADE’s Spring Online Auction and help launch a transformative new program!

This exciting event will raise crucial funds to support the pilot of our Movement Practice for Domestic Violence Survivors program, set to begin in the summer of 2025. This community-based initiative is designed to provide culturally resonant, trauma-informed, person-centered, and survivor-defined support, offering survivors the empowerment they deserve.

Developed in collaboration with the renowned Rompi il Silenzio Anti-Violence Center in Rimini, Italy, and backed by expert training from the National Center on Domestic Violence, Trauma, and Mental Health (US), this program will make a profound difference in the lives of those who need it most.

Your support in our Spring Online Auction will directly impact the success of this pilot and help survivors reclaim their strength and healing. Don't miss the chance to be part of something powerful — your participation matters!

We are aiming to raise $4,000 to cover essential costs, including trainer fees, collaborating artists, rental space, travel, and production expenses. Your generous contribution will directly support these vital components, ensuring that the program runs smoothly and effectively. Every dollar you give brings us closer to providing survivors with the life-changing support they deserve.

The Movement Practice for Domestic Violence Survivors program emphasizes healing through movement and sound. It is structured around a 3-part training process, including sessions in New York City and Rimini, focusing on experiential learning and developing a one-of-a-kind movement practice for survivors.

The program is designed with joy and compassion at its core and integrates expertise from trained professionals to create a holistic healing environment.
