I chose to raise funds for safe steps as part of a marathon event. Knowing I was helping women affected by domestic violence was a great motivator, it really helped me stay focused during training and made the whole experience so much more worthwhile. – Kelly

From a walk to a full marathon or a colour run, there are all sorts of events you can take part in and make a huge difference. Every step you take, and every dollar you raise, will help. It’s easy!

Step 1: Select and sign up for a run or walk event

Listed below are some of the more popular events around Victoria and Australia, but you can choose any organised run or walk event you like.

Step 2: set up your online fundraising page

Most running events will prompt you to create a fundraising page when you register. If the event doesn’t have this option, click here to create your own steps4change online fundraising page here.

Step 3: Start fundraising!

Once your fundraising page is set up, send out the link to your friends and family and ask them to make a donation. You can also share the link to your fundraising page on  Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn. Don’t want to do it alone? Why not get a group of your friends, family or work colleagues involved?!
