Who
You! Survivors, friends, family members, colleagues, partners, activists, volunteers, staff, interns, community members, and even your four-legged friends (on leashes) are welcome to join us.
What
Walk alongside us, in solidarity with survivors. Choose to walk in-person or walk “from anywhere.” No matter where you walk, you are showing survivors that they are not alone, and we are all in this together!
When
Sunday, December 10, 5:00–8:00 p.m.
Where
285 Auburndale Ave., Newton, MA 02466
Why
Help raise awareness and funds to support survivors of sexual violence. Your support helps BARCC continue to provide free, trauma-informed care to survivors. It also enables BARCC to advocate for policies and strategies that help prevent sexual violence from happening in the first place.
How
Secure your spot at the 2024 Walk for Change now by registering! You can participate as an individual or as part of a team.
Local business Sunny Window is hosting an upcoming shopping event to benefit us and the Massachusetts Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) program. Get ready to do some holiday shopping to help ensure that free, compassionate survivor services are available 24-7!
BARCC works together with the SANE program to offer survivors at area hospitals the care and support they need. Together, we make sure that survivors have expert nurses and advocates at their side as they go through a sexual assault exam and evidence collection kit.
Sunny Window will be donating half the profits from its evening event to BARCC and the SANE program. Sunny Window specializes in French lavender, olive oil soaps, fine natural products, and elegant treasures from around the world. Open since 1981, the business has earned many awards for business, entrepreneurship, and community service.
Enjoy the company of neighbors and friends, as well as delicious wine and refreshments, while you shop. This event is 5:00–8:00 p.m. only. If you cannot attend but want to shop in support of survivors, place your online order anytime on Sunday, December 10, at sunnywindow.com and write “supporting survivors” in the note field at checkout.
