Fundraising Committee

If you are interested in joining the Fundraising Committee, please contact us.

Take Back the Night an annual community event happening on the third Thursday of September. It is a powerful opportunity for survivors and allies to build connections, reclaim our right to safety, and courageously stand up against violence in our community.

Each year we rely on incred­i­ble TBTN vol­un­teers to make the event a huge suc­cess! We are currently taking applications for the TBTN 2026 Planning Committee. Volunteers can be any gender, must be age 18+, and have not used SACHA’s support services in the past year (12 months from time of applying).
We are looking for volunteers who are able to:
• Work and thrive in accordance with SACHA feminist, anti-oppressive, anti-racist vision and mission - https://sacha.ca/about/vision
•Work independently to take on and complete tasks without supervision.
• Come to a minimum of 3 meetings a month from May to October. Meetings will be virtual via TEAMS and usually last 1-2 hours and will occur on Tuesday evenings. Please ensure you have availability to attend meetings on Tuesday evenings from 6-8pm during these planning months.
• Take on work outside of the committee meetings including regularly communicating with the chair and other members. Amount of work outside of committee meetings will vary could include 2-8 hours a week depending on time of year, need, and capacity of members. Please ensure you can commit to a minimum of 2 hours outside of meetings and 2 hours in meetings per week before applying. • Make decisions by consensus.

We do this work because working with others against injustice is an empowering, exciting and revolutionary experience. We do this work because no one else will do it for us. With a common goal and vision of collective safety, liberation and joy, we work together to free ourselves and each other from violence caused by patriarchy, colonialism and all oppressions.

All TBTN Committee applicants who are selected from the applications are required to attend virtual orientation from 6:00-8:00pm Tuesday May 12th so folks can ask questions, and so we can mutually ensure you are a good fit for the committee.

After this orientation folks who are selected and agree to participate will be contacted and the work will begin right away. Folks can be asked to leave the committee at any time for not adhering to SACHA's policies sand procedures (found on our website and in our office).

The deadline to apply is May 7th 2026 at 5pm. You will be contacted on May 8th to you know the status of your application but please ensure you are available for orientation on May 12th 6-8pm before applying. If you are unavailable for orientation please email Miranda@sacha.ca before applying.
