Victim-survivors of sexual violence donβt want to talk about whatβs happened to them, so it is critical they can safely tell their story once, and once only, to get the immediate help and ongoing support they need.

βThe first door they knock on has to be the right door,β said Dr Kate Taylor, Trust Chair of the Midlands Sexual Assault Support Services (MSASS).
The MSASS trust set up its own philanthropic investment fund with Momentum Waikato in April 2023, founded with its own reserve funds and donations.
βThe investment income from the Midlands Sexual Assault Support Service Fund at Momentum Waikato will go into sustaining and expanding our ability to help victim-survivors of sexual violence,β said Kate.
