Open Haven Campaign, Host Registration

We are currently looking for awesome people (we refer to them as Superstar Hosts) to register to hold private dinner or cocktail parties to raise funds for Open Haven. 

Open Haven is a registered charity that provides a safe and confidential place for women who are  survivors of domestic violence.

Our vision is that every woman is valued and empowered into a supportive community. We strive for this vision by mobilising and harnessing the community to provide essential skills and long term support in order to help rebuild their lives.

We create a personalised plan that sets them on a path of empowerment. Through this plan, we provide long term coordinated support for the women, services such as: Driving lessons, English and literacy classes, access to child psychologists, lawyers and health providers, help moving house, toiletries, clothing, Food and Fuel vouchers, child care support, and advocate to sit with them in the courtroom,a spokesperson to organise a rental property with an estate agent, help with writing a resume, help gaining a skill/qualification and finding employment. The potential list is endless but Open Haven always finds a way to meet these requirements, and at all times, at no cost to the woman.Our relationship remains open at all times, and does not end until the day they say to us, I'm good, I'm ready. This journey could be 6 months, a year or 2 years.

We help transform lives by gently setting the women on a path of independence and self sufficiency.

Currently, all of these services are run out of a hub in Balmoral/Bulimba and we are very excited to replicate the work we are doing by setting up another hub in Logan so that hundreds more women and children can be reached, and their lives transformed. As little as $50,000 per annum will enable us to set this up.

My Giving Table is committed to assisting Open Haven reach this goal and to do this we need your help: 

What can you do? Register to be a host here and we will set you up with a unique URL for your event. You set the date, the time, the theme and the price for your friends to attend. You invite friends and they register and pay through your unique URL that we send you. 

All funds are tracable and collected in compliance with fundraising codes and the Office of Fair Trade requirements. 

As a Superstar Host you provide the venue and the food, your friends can be asked to contribute by bringing drinks if you would like, it is up to you. Basically you hold a party with purpose, enjoy the company of friends while assisting Open Haven to reach their goal of a new pod.
