Last week, members of The Execu|Search Group’s Women’s Network participated in Story by Story, a unique stair climbing fundraiser to end domestic violence. This event directly benefits Her Justice, a nonprofit that provides free legal help for women who have experienced intimate partner violence. The participants climbed 34 flights of stairs of the historic Hemsley Building.

“We always looking forward to participating in Story by Story’s annual stair climb event, and this year, we raised over $2,300 for Her Justice,” says Daniela D’Alessandro, a Managing Director at The Execu|Search Group who organized our participation in the event. “On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. This event allows us to come together to spread awareness about this violence impacting our communities, while showing our support for the survivors and individuals currently experiencing domestic violence.”

The Women’s Network meets twice annually and participates in a number of community initiatives throughout the year. To learn more about our Women’s Network and read about our past events, click here.
