Donate

Restorative Justice Victoria (RJV) is funded almost entirely through private donations and grants. Each year, we receive $2,500 from the provincial government, and any additional public funding must be requested through grant application-writing for specific initiatives. Needless to say, we depend heavily on our local and provincial community members to fund our activities. Each year, the number and complexity of cases we are referred increases as our reputation as an integral part of the criminal justice system grows. 

The work we do heals the harms our families, friends, and neighbours experience due to a crime and violence. We take this very seriously and hate to have to turn referrals down due to lack of funding. If you want to help us with a financial donation, your money will go to decreasing crime, providing healing, and improving safety for all.

Current RJ Victoria Needs:

While financial contributions to support our staffing & project goals are critical to our operations and take precedence wherever possible, we also are often in need of smaller office equipment & other things. Please look at our current list of needs and consider making a contribution. Every contribution goes a long way. We thank you for your consideration.
