Stop Violence Against Women and Chidren!

AWCH stands behind initiatives to end violence against women and children. The Laufend Gegen Gewalt charity run is
sponsored by the Hamburg Autonomous Women's Shelters. The goal is to raise money to support the residents of the
women's shelters and to raise awareness of the ever increasing number of domestic violence in Hamburg and the world.

The autonomous Hamburg women's shelters offer help for those escaping violence at home. In addition to housing, the
shelters offer women and children individual advice, support and perspective development for a life without violence.

This charity run is the sole fundraising event for the Women's Shelters to cover extra expenses for sheltering the over
500 women and children each year.  

Join us to support their cause!  Domestic violence must not be ignored, tolerated or trivialized.
