Our voices are the most powerful when they’re brought together.

Host your own event for Shelter Movers and turn community spirit into safe escapes for survivors.

From bake sales to trivia nights, fundraisers fuel our free, trauma-informed moves—100% of funds go directly to trucks, storage, and volunteer coordination that help families leave abuse with dignity and belongings intact.

It takes minutes to launch: pick a goal, share your story, rally your network, and we'll track every impact.

Why fundraise?

Your gathering transforms everyday support into secure, trauma-informed transitions that preserve safety, dignity, and irreplaceable belongings for entire families.

One fundraiser creates ripple effects, enabling rapid responses nationwide and strengthening our network of chapters. By engaging your community, you help ensure no one faces escape alone, turning local action into lasting freedom from violence.
