Since 1977, the Houston Area Women’s Center (HAWC) has supported survivors of domestic and sexual violence, including sex trafficking. As the region’s largest rape crisis center, HAWC provides 24/7 crisis intervention, emergency shelter, counseling, legal advocacy, children’s services, career development, and prevention education.
You can be a part of this movement – making a difference in the life of a survivor. Check out ways that you can get involved this summer.

Make Your Next Celebration Extra Meaningful.
Have a birthday, wedding, anniversary, or special occasion coming up? This year, celebrate with purpose by turning your event into a private fundraiser for the Houston Area Women’s Center.
Instead of gifts, ask your loved ones to support a cause close to your heart. We’ll make it simple by creating a custom QR code just for you—easy to share with friends and family. Every donation will be tracked and recorded according to your preferences.
Do something different. Do something powerful. Celebrate with impact.
