Our Contribution:

Here's how we contribute to these goals:

No Poverty

Quality Education

​RAISE UP Foundation provides full scholarships for tertiary education, enabling survivors to access quality education. By supporting their educational pursuits, the foundation contributes to ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education, promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all.

Gender Equality

Domestic violence disproportionately affects women. By empowering female survivors through education and support, RAISE UP Foundation promotes gender equality, empowering women to overcome adversity and achieve their full potential.

Decent Work and Economic Growth

By providing survivors with educational opportunities and job support, RAISE UP Foundation contributes to decent work and economic growth. Survivors are equipped with skills and confidence, enhancing their employability and earning potential, ultimately fostering economic growth within communities.

Reduced Inequalities

Survivors of domestic violence often face social and economic inequalities. RAISE UP Foundation’s initiatives help reduce these disparities by providing equal educational opportunities and support, ensuring that survivors can overcome challenges and access a better future, irrespective of their past experiences.

Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions

RAISE UP Foundation promotes peace and justice by supporting survivors of domestic violence. By empowering individuals to break free from abusive situations and providing them with necessary resources, we contribute to building strong, inclusive, and accountable institutions at all levels.

By addressing the root causes of domestic violence and providing survivors with opportunities for education, empowerment, and economic independence, the RAISE UP Foundation NZ plays a crucial role in advancing these UN Sustainable Development Goals, contributing to a more sustainable, equitable, and peaceful world.
