Together Housed

Thank you for supporting the Downtown Women's Center!

Together, our community made the 2021 Together Housed campaign a huge success! Highlights included our first-ever DWC 7-Day Advocacy Challenge, an online auction, and peer-to-peer fundraising.

All in all, than 480 individuals, 16 teams, and 281 new donors helped us raise over $600,000 over three weeks, to support the 5,000+ women DWC serves who are dually impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and our city’s ongoing affordable housing crisis.

Thank you to everyone who participated for being part of the solution!
