V-Day Austin 2013 is working to launch a V-Day benefit production of Eve Ensler’s The Vagina Monologues to raise money and awareness for local organizations that work to stop violence against women and children.
Our beneficiaries for this year are the Central Texas Coalition Against Human Trafficking, Refugee Services of Texas, and Empower Art.
V-Day is a global activist movement to end violence against women and girls. V-Day is a catalyst that promotes creative events to increase awareness, raise money, and revitalize the spirit of existing anti-violence organizations. V-Day generates broader attention for the fight to stop violence against women and girls, including rape, battery, incest, female genital mutilation (FGM), and sex slavery.
The Vagina Monologues is an award-winning play based on V-Day Founder/playwright Eve Ensler’s interviews with more than 200 women. Through this play and the liberation of this one word, countless women throughout the world have taken control of their bodies and their lives.
