Take the 2 cents a day pledge


It would cost the Federal Government just 2 cents a day per Australian to fund the five year WCSP to provide refuges and other programs for women and their children escaping domestic violence.

We want the federal government to commit to our 2 cents a day to keep women and their children safe.

Will you take the Pledge?

Tell our federal political leaders you support WCSP by emailing them, reaching out to them on Facebook or Twitter, or by making your own '2 Cents Pledge' video.

Ask your friends and family to pledge and share this message on social media.

 

Take the pledge
