V-Day invites members of college and university communities around the world to present benefit productions of works licensed by V-Day on their campuses centering each year around V-Day on February 14th. This year we are allowing events to begin on January 1st and run through March 30th! The purpose of these events is to raise awareness about violence against women and girls as well as raise money for local beneficiaries that are working to end the violence. You must plan to present your events in an on campus theater and anyone affiliated with the college or university is eligible to organize a V-Day event. There is no theater experience necessary.

We are very excited that 2008 will mark V-Day’s 10th Anniversary and we would love for you to be a part of our celebrations. Below are the ways in which you can think about bringing a V-Day event to your campus in 2008.

And there are many, many more ideas that our organizers have shared with us on the organizer website once you have signed up!

1. Benefit performances of "The Vagina Monologues" have been done in thousands of colleges and universities since 1998, with unrivaled success. These events have been responsible for raising millions of dollars for local charities over the last 10 years.

2. A new collection of monologues, A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer: Writings To Stop Violence Against Women and Girls, is a groundbreaking collection of monologues by world-renowned authors and playwrights, edited by Eve Ensler. It is available for you to present as a reading and is a good way to involve male peers in the V-Day movement.

3. You can also host a screening of our documentary “Until the Violence Stops.” It is an overall look at the V-Day movement and the work we are doing around the world. It is a fabulous way to introduce your friends and community to V-Day.

We are certain that you too will have many creative and inspiring ideas and we look forward to welcoming you into V-World.
