What is V-Day?

V-Day is a global movement that helps anti-violence organizations throughout
the world continue and expand their core work while drawing public attention
to the larger fight to stop worldwide violence (including rape, battery,
incest, female genital mutilation (FGM), sexual slavery) against women and
girls.

·         Somewhere in America a woman is battered, usually by her intimate
partner, every 15 seconds.  (United Nations Study on the Status of Women,
2000)

·         More than 130 million girls and women worldwide have been
subjected to female genital cutting, and a further two million girls are at
risk.  (World Health Organization, 1997)

·         From 1993-1998, women ages 16 to 24 experienced the highest per
capita rates of intimate violence (19.6 per 1,000 women).  (“Intimate
Partner Violence,” Bureau of Justice Statistics, May 2000)

·         Domestic violence occurs in approximately 25-33% of same-sex
relationships.  (NYC Gay and Lesbian Anti-Violence Project, October 1996)

·         In Cuyahoga County, it is estimated that over 7,500 rapes occur
every year. We can only estimate the number of assaults that occur due to
the fact that less than 20% of these crimes are ever reported to police.

V-Day is also a day (on or around Valentine's Day in February), for which
annual theatrical and artistic events are produced around the world to
transform consciousness, raise money, and revitalize the spirit of existing
anti-violence organizations.  Each year, V-Day promotes a series of
innovative productions, events and initiatives that are identified
collectively as V-Day and the year (i.e. V-Day 2001, V-Day 2002, V-Day
2003…).

Since its launch in 1998, V-Day has awarded close to $4 million to
grassroots, national and international organizations and programs that work
to stop violence against women and girls.  The money comes from commercial
performances of "The Vagina Monologues,” individuals, corporations,
foundations and product sales.  Awardees are chosen and funds are
distributed annually, in or around the month of February.  V-Day is a
501(c)3 non-profit organization.

The V-Day Worldwide Campaign
In 2001, the V-Day Worldwide Campaign was presented around the world from
Akron, Ohio, USA to Zagreb, Croatia to the Murdoch Base in Antarctica. As
anyone who has seen "The Vagina Monologues" knows, the play has the power to
galvanize and inspire a powerful sense of self and activism. The V-Day 2002
focus is to bring the V-Day movement to the broadest possible audience.
Our hope is that the V-Day movement becomes a catalyst for mobilizing
communities to heighten awareness about violence against women and girls.
By creating this world community, V-Day strives to empower women to find
their collective voices and demand an end to the epidemic levels of violence
and abuse.  The proceeds from these events go back into the communities to
local organizations and programs already working to stop this violence.

About the Cleveland Rape Crisis Center

dedicated to serving survivors of sexual violence through superior direct

What are “The Vagina Monologues”?

Hailed by The New York Times as "funny" and "poignant" and by the Daily News
as "intelligent" and "courageous," “The Vagina Monologues” dives into the
mystery, humor, pain, power, wisdom, outrage and excitement buried in women’
s experiences.  Based on interviews with a diverse group of hundreds of
women - from a Long Island antiques dealer to a Bosnian refugee - “The
Vagina Monologues” brazenly explores questions often pondered, but seldom
asked.  Ms. Ensler has performed the play to great acclaim throughout the
world - from Zagreb to Santa Barbara, from London to Seattle, from Jerusalem
to Oklahoma City.  Villard Books/Random House published “The Vagina
Monologues,” which includes a foreword by Gloria Steinem, in February 1998.
A special V‑Day edition of the play was released in February 2001.

V-Day Cleveland 2002

The V-Day Cleveland 2002 production of “The Vagina Monologues” will be
performed at Cleveland Public Theatre 6415 Detroit Avenue at West 65th
Street.  The performance is at 7:00 pm on Sunday, February 17th.  Tickets
are $50/25 and may be purchased (or reserved) by phoning 216-631-2727.

The ‘V’ in V-Day stands for Victory, Valentine and Vagina.
