What is V-Day?
V-Day is a global movement to end violence against women and girls that raises funds and awareness through benefit productions of Playwright/Founder Eve Ensler’s award-winning play The Vagina Monologues. In 2006, more than 2700 V-Day events in 1150 communities and colleges took place in the U.S. and around the world. To date, V-Day has raised over $40 million and educated millions about the issue of violence against women and the efforts to end it, crafted international educational media and PSA campaigns, funded over 5000 community-based anti-violence programs, reopened shelters, and funded safe houses around the world.
Benefit performances of The Vagina Monologues as V-Day event provides a way for diverse, local women, activists and actors to collaborate and express universal ideas and emotions regarding violence against women in their own unique way, tailored to their individual experiences and their specific audiences. The proceeds from these events are donated directly to local organizations in the community that are working to stop this violence.
