The Purple Challenge
Welcome to the Purple Challenge 2025!
Every October in honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM), HopeWorks kicks off a virtual fundraising campaign to raise awareness and support for those affected by intimate partner violence in our community.
DVAM is an opportunity for individuals, organizations, and communities to raise public awareness of intimate partner violence and engage in efforts to prevent it. HopeWorks invites advocates, family members, neighbors, supporters, and community members to stand together in solidarity and uplift survivors. Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of so many people in our community. Together, we can end domestic violence and create peace. Change begins today!
About The Purple Challenge
The Purple Challenge is a virtual, peer-to-peer fundraising campaign that begins on October 1 and lasts the entire month of October. Individuals and teams create personal fundraising pages to collect donations from their friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors. 100% of the funds raised during The Purple Challenge go to HopeWorks’ comprehensive intervention services, outreach and prevention education for survivors and our community.
