Learn all about iPledge's origins & impact

Women Against Abuse launched the iPledge® Campaign in 2008 as a citywide public awareness initiative to educate Philadelphians about how they can make a meaningful impact in addressing domestic violence. At its core, iPledge emphasizes the power of bystander intervention as a vital strategy for preventing intimate partner violence.

Each October, in honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Women Against Abuse hosts the iPledge press conference and resource fair. This annual event brings together community leaders, advocates, and residents to unite in support of survivors and to call for change.

Over the years, iPledge has become a powerful platform for advocacy, awareness, and systems change—mobilizing the community to demand greater resources, stronger interventions, and a shared commitment to ending domestic violence in our city.
