Participate
Join Nova Vita throughout the year at one of our annual events to raise awareness about domestic violence and raise much needed financial support for our emergency shelter, programs and services.
International Women’s Day
A very special thank you to our attendees, sponsors, prize donors, volunteers, and special guests. Because of you, over $40,000 was raised at #NovaVitaIWD to support women and their families impacted by domestic violence in our communities. You made a difference.

Break The Silence On Domestic Violence
For many women, living in violence is also living in silence. They feel trapped, experience increased isolation, do not feel safe in their own home, and often feel alone and voiceless. Be a voice to break the silence on domestic violence!
In solidarity for women who are living in silence, go silent for 24 hours on November 24 to raise awareness and essential funding to support women escaping abuse. After 24 hours, break your silence to help end domestic violence. Register and build your individual or team campaign at www.novavita.org/break-the-silence. Fundraisers who raise over $100 will receive a Nova Vita reusable cotton mask!
For more information, or for help registering, contact events@novavita.org, or visit www.novavita.org/break-the-silence
