Becky's Fund

Domestic Violence College Tour

Due to the typical response of our community sweeping domestic violence under the rug, Becky’s Fund specifically looked for a way to bring this issue out in the open. After being asked by many college students at conferences and other venues about what could be done to help end domestic violence, Becky’s Fund realized how much more awareness and education about domestic violence was needed to combat the fight against domestic violence.

Since one of the best places to educate and make change for the future happens on college campuses, Becky’s Fund has decided to launch a national college tour, incorporating a speaking tour starting at colleges with a pledge campaign to publicly fight against domestic violence with college students. These students will then take this project into the surrounding communities and make presentations to other civic organizations like community groups and churches. College students are the next generation who are the role models and leaders of our future. Who better to encourage and incite than these college students who have the capacity to change our future and help bring domestic violence to an end?

In order to coordinate this campaign as successfully as possible, Becky's Fund hopes to reach as many students as possible and get them on board. We need your help! We are asking for your help in distributing this letter and information about the program to as many civic organizations, fraternities, sororities, conference organizers, and coalitions as possible. The more people we can get involved with this project, the greater likelihood that we can help bring domestic violence to an end.

Please email us for more information regarding this tour and schedule beginning in the fall of 2008.
