Expected No More Week Deals
No More Week focuses on awareness and fundraising rather than commercial deals. Organizations like NO MORE, RAINN, and the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV) typically lead campaigns for donations, often partnering with corporate sponsors for matching gift programs. Brands such as Avon, with its long history of supporting women’s causes, and Verizon, through its domestic violence initiatives, may offer special ways to contribute or raise awareness. Look for opportunities to donate directly to these organizations, participate in virtual events, or purchase merchandise where proceeds benefit prevention and support services. We will update this page with confirmed live campaigns as March approaches.

History of No More Week
There has been a long silence on domestic abuse due to social constructs and a lack of information and support for domestic abuse victims in many parts of the world. A 2009 report in Northern Ireland showed that domestic abuse is the least likely of all violent crimes to be reported to the police. A survey of 28 European Union nations was undertaken in 2014. Only 14% of women reported their most serious event to the authorities, indicating a significant underreporting problem. It is safe to say that the statistic is even higher in countries in Asia and Africa which are red zones of domestic abuse and violence.
The No More project and National No More Week were founded in March 2013 by a collaboration of advocacy organizations to stop domestic violence worldwide. No More is a project of the charity called NEO Philanthropy. In September of that same year, they launched a media video campaign, “No More PSAs,” featuring celebrities to pass the written message. In 2016, No More helped raise over $1.2 million for grassroots organizations through the No More Challenge, an online fundraising competition held in 2016 and 2017.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought an upsurge in the number of domestic abuse cases. Reports show that stressful lockdown conditions triggered violence in homes. There was a recorded rise in intimate partner violence in Africa, Asia, and Europe. There was a 131% increase in domestic violence in areas with strict lockdown measures in India. Victims were trapped inside their houses with their abusers, with no means of escape, leading to further underreporting.
The fight against domestic abuse continues to rage for the safety of every woman and man in such conditions. National No More Week is here to get everyone to say “NO MORE!” to domestic abuse and bring about positive change on an international, societal, and individual level.
