Hope in Every Step 2023
On September 23rd and 24th we will march in this walk to show our support for survivors of abuse and to raise awareness and funds for those affected by domestic violence. By participating in “Hope in Every Step”, we hope to become an essential part of the solution, amplifying the voices of survivors, and working towards a society free from violence.

Our Work with them:
The 2nd annual No Excuse for Woman Abuse Fashion Show
This event took place on May 4th 2023.
39 local leaders, celebrities, and influencers came together to model looks from six Burlington clothing shops at No Excuse Boxing to raise funds for Halton Women’s Place.
The fashion show fundraiser, called There’s No Excuse for Woman Abuse, also featured Second Skin, a punching-bag artwork by artist Tania LaCaria and eight other women who have survived abuse. It was displayed in the boxing ring, hanging behind event organizer and emcee Julie Cole as kept the energy high throughout the night.
The event also included a clothing drive by Vickie Cooper Realty Group, who collected women’s workwear for women who need return-to-work attire (many women escaping abuse must leave most of their clothing and possessions behind), and a cheque presentation by Gore Mutual to Halton Women’s Place. Mayor Marianne Meed Ward closed the show.
Baig Security attended and donated through our ticket purchase to support the event. This helped raise money for Halton Women’s Place.
