Proceeds from CHW Fashion Blooms and CIFW 2026 will empower victims of violence and trauma. Domestic, sexual, gender based, and intimate partner violence (IPV) are societal issues of epidemic proportion in Israel and Canada. CHW’s support is filling the gaps to empower those most at risk, helping provide solutions for protection, prevention, economic independence, and trauma recovery, to help break the cycle of violence and start over safely. Funding is provided to six programs: Franny’s Fund in Canada and Michal Sela Forum, HaGal Sheli, Her Academy, and Eden Association in Israel.
