Partner with Purpose
Join the movement supporting women to recover, build resilience and thrive after domestic abuse and trauma.
The Need
Domestic and family violence costs Australia $22 billion every year. (KPMG, 2016)
1 in 4 Australian women are affected by domestic violence. That means 1 in 4 of your employees, customers and community are navigating trauma, recovery and rebuilding their lives, often in silence.
Five in ten women experiencing domestic violence never receive any formal support (Personal Safety Survey, 2022).
Once immediate safety and housing needs are met, many women are left to navigate the recovery that follows largely on their own, rebuilding confidence, stability and independence after trauma. This recovery stage remains one of the most underfunded areas of the domestic violence response.
Government support is concentrated in early intervention; crisis shelters and transitional housing. Recovery is where corporate partnership makes the difference.
With demand growing and funding declining, the gap between women who need recovery support and those who can access it is widening.
Corporate partnerships power change for women rebuilding their lives without access to formal support. Your investment breaks generational cycles. Your employees. Their families. Your customers. Your community.

The Women's Resilience Centre's Corporate Mentoring Program connects your employees directly with women rebuilding their lives, through structured, skills-based volunteering that creates real outcomes for your people and your organisation.
Your employees gain: leadership, communication and mentoring skills, greater confidence and sense of purpose, and stronger loyalty to your organisation.
Your organisation gains: volunteer hours tracked for ESG and sustainability reporting, up to 30% lower attrition rates (PwC and Optus, ABCN), and Named Corporate Mentoring Partner status.
Two flexible pathways: Lived Experience Mentor and Capability Building Mentor, both 100% online, structured around your team's schedule.
Workplace Giving
Payroll giving is one of the simplest ways for your organisation to create steady, long-term impact for women in recovery, pre-tax, often employer-matched, and easy to set up.
We partner with Australia's leading giving platforms including Benevity, Good2Give, GoodCompany, Charitabl and Catalyser.

Trauma to Thriving
“I left with nothing, no job, no savings, no idea how to rebuild. The Women’s Resilience Centre’s recovery support changed everything. Eighteen months later, I’m financially independent with full-time employment. My daughter told me she wants to be ‘strong like mummy.’ That’s breaking the cycle.”
Let’s start the conversation
We'd love to explore a partnership that creates meaningful impact while meeting your business objectives.
The Women's Resilience Centre is a DGR registered charity, all donations are tax deductible.
