Donating $4300 in 2018 to Canberra’s Domestic Violence Crisis Service

Aerial Capital Group and its employees setup a perpetual charitable fund, Aerial4GreaterGood, with The Greater Good Capital Region Community Foundation in 2010.

Our chosen charity, the Domestic Violence Crisis Service, has received over $18,000 in income generated from our fund so far.

Domestic Violence Crisis Service (DVCS) is a community organisation that seeks to address violence and abuse in family and partner relationships and to promote respect in these relationships. On average at least one woman a week is killed by a partner or former partner in Australia,1 and of those women who experience violence, more than half have children in their care.2

Our fund has grown healthily over the last 8 years enabling us to make ever increasing donations. Aerial would like to thank Aerial Capital Group staff and the Greater Good Foundation for helping us to support such a worthy cause.
