What your partnership could make possible

Safety in crisis

For women and children escaping violence or homelessness, a safe place to stay is only the beginning. Our crisis response brings together safe accommodation, specialist support and practical assistance to create stability and a pathway forward.

YOUR PARTNERSHIP COULD:

Fund frontline specialists, strengthen pathways to support, or provide the resources, expertise and practical assistance women and children need in crisis.

Recovery and opportunity

Moving beyond crisis takes time, connection and opportunities to rebuild. Our specialist programs work alongside women and children as they recover from violence, reconnect with community and take steps towards the futures they choose.

YOUR PARTNERSHIP COULD:

Invest in specialist recovery programs, create employment and mentoring opportunities, or contribute funding, skills and expertise that open new pathways for women and families.

Prevention and early intervention

Ending gender-based violence means changing the attitudes, behaviours and structures that allow it to happen. We work with children, families, educators, workplaces and communities to build equality and respectful relationships from the start.

YOUR PARTNERSHIP COULD:

Bring prevention and education into workplaces and communities, extend our reach to more children and families, or use your platform to help shift attitudes and build a culture of equality and respect.

Innovation and systems change

Frontline experience gives us insight into emerging issues, gaps in systems and where new approaches are needed. Through innovation, evidence and advocacy, we work to create change that reaches far beyond WAGEC.

YOUR PARTNERSHIP COULD:

Back new ideas and emerging responses, contribute research or expertise, build evidence about what works, or amplify advocacy for broader systems change.

Stronger communities

Creating safer futures takes all of us. We work alongside community organisations, schools, educators, services and local networks to strengthen connections, share knowledge and create communities where women and children are supported and connected.

YOUR PARTNERSHIP COULD:

Strengthen referral and community networks, share skills and resources, create opportunities for women and families, or bring organisations together around shared action.

Arc Capital Group has been partnering with WAGEC since 2025.

Together, we’re working to end gender-based violence by focusing on three key areas: safe housing, financial independence, and closing critical funding gaps.

The power of partnership

No two partnerships look exactly the same.

Some partners help fund critical services. Some contribute expertise, resources or facilities. Others help us reach new audiences, advocate for policy change, or test new ideas that improve outcomes for women and communities.

Our team can help identify the partnership pathway that best matches your goals, interests and capacity. Whether you’re exploring a major gift, workplace initiative, volunteering opportunity or community collaboration, we’d love to hear from you.

WAGEC acknowledges the traditional owners of country throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
