For a decade, Penn has recognized the importance of stopping violence against women and girls in the Philadelphia community. For this reason, Penn's V-Day donates 90% of proceeds to Philadelphia's only full-service rape crisis center, Women Organized Against Rape (WOAR). The remaining 10% goes to the V-Day Spotlight Campaign.
Our production of The Vagina Monologues spreads the message to over 3,000 students, alumni, faculty, staff, and residents annually. Over the past three years, Penn V-Day has raised over $75,000 to stop the violence. Each year our commitment grows even stronger.
This February marks the 10th year of Penn's participation in the V-Day global campaign. V-Day is not a campaign just for women, or one that is meant to simply reprimand men. V-Day recognizes that men and women must work together to bring an end to violence against women and girls.
We cannot stop violence against women and girls without donors like you. Please support your friends, your family, and fellow Penn students in this campus-wide effort to end the violence. We know that with your participation this will be one of the most spectacular events in Philadelphia and at Penn this year.
