SAHSSI 30 Walk

'Walk a little or a lot'!

Background

SAHSSI30 is a walk along the beautiful Jervis Bay coastline to raise funds for domestic violence survivors in the Shoalhaven and local women at our crisis accommodation sites.

It is a grassroots community-driven event that has grown out of a desire to make positive change for women and children in the Shoalhaven.

This annual walk with hundreds of participants has raised nearly $100,000 for SAHSSI Nowra Women's Refuge and keeps the focus on the issue of gender-based violence and homelessness in the local area.

The funds raised by SAHSSI30 have provided families who are living on or below the poverty line with access to activities and experiences that would not otherwise be available to them.

SAHSSI30 has funded a coach full of children to Mogo Zoo, purchased school holiday activities for children staying in the refuge, funded Christmas experiences, contributed to the refuge sanctuary garden, provided internet access in the refuge and helped with the construction of a children's playground.

All money donated to SAHSSI is spent directly on the clients we support.

You can walk as an individual or as a group and you can walk ANY distance that suits you or simply donate to a great event and cause.
