GIVE EVERY MONTH ‘GEM’ PROGRAM
What is the GEM Program?
The GEM Program has been created to celebrate and grow the special community of people (existing and new) who are giving on a monthly basis to the shelter. This program is a collaboration with Lindfield & Districts Community Bank.
Thanks to Lindfield & Districts Community Bank, all new GEM supporters will have their first month’s donation MATCHED. Dollar for dollar.
As a GEM, you become part of the HKWS family. You’ll receive unique updates from the shelter throughout the year and information about exclusive events.
Every year, you’ll climb our GEM ladder from Ruby (1 year of giving) through to Diamond (6+ years of giving). At each stage of your journey, we’d like to say THANK YOU for being a GEM.
How do I become a GEM?
It’s easy to become a GEM. Simply sign up via our GEM regular giving donation page here! If you’d prefer to give via direct debit, you can contact our team to arrange this at ua.gro.swkh@eciffo
Here’s how your monthly gift can help:
- A monthly donation of $100 over one year can provide a week of safety and support for a woman and her children
- A monthly donation of $80 over one year can provide 9 women with crisis housing for the night
- A monthly donation of $60 over one year can provide 10 women with caseworker support at court
- A monthly donation of $40 over one year can provide additional outreach hours to help a woman move towards financial independence and empowerment
- A monthly donation of $20 over one year can help 12 women get access to education
GEMs are the backbone of the HKWS family – providing regular, sustainable income that we can rely on. They are kind, compassionate and committed to helping women and children in our community who are escaping domestic abuse and homelessness.
