V-Day is a global activist movement to end violence against all women and girls (cis, transgender and gender non-conforming) that raises funds and awareness through benefit productions of Playwright/Founder Eve Ensler’s award winning play The Vagina Monologues and other artistic works.

The ONE BILLION RISING campaign, launched by V-Day on Valentine’s Day 2012, began as a call to action based on the staggering statistic that 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. It has galvanized over one billion women and men on a global day of action to bring the issue of violence against women and girls front and center.
