25th Annual Brides' March for Gladys Ricart & Victims of Domestic Violence

Join us for the 25th annual Brides March - a 7-mile memorial walk through NYC to support survivors of domestic violence. The Brides’ March began in 2001 in honor of Gladys Ricart, murdered on her wedding day by a jealous ex. For 25 years, we’ve walked to break the silence on intimate partner violence. We grieve, build community, and demand change.

This year, we are growing from grassroots into a full-fledged service provider, focusing on communities too often left out—youth, men, and homicide survivors. We invite you to support this year’s expansion by donating $25 for our 25th year to help us meet our $50K goal and expand our legacy.
