The �̾�����ƵWomen’s Justice Center (PWJC) is proud to announce its 2024 "Raising the Bar" Benefit Concert, a pivotal event dedicated to raising awareness and support for victims and survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and elder abuse. The concert will take place on Thursday, October 24, 2024, at the historic Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY, featuring a special performance by Grammy award-winning artist, songwriter, actor, author, and advocate, Ashanti.

“Having Ashanti headline this year’s ‘Raising the Bar’ Benefit Concert is incredibly significant,” says Cindy Kanusher, Executive Director of PWJC. “Her powerful voice makes her the perfect advocate for our mission. We are honored to have Ashanti and her sister, Shia, bring awareness to and help raise funds for finding justice and safety for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.”

In addition, PWJC will honor The ICON Foundation, Inc. with the Making a Difference Award. As the charitable arm of Keller Williams Realty Group, The ICON Foundation has made an outstanding impact on local communities in Westchester, Bronx, Putnam, and surrounding counties. Their unwavering support and generous sponsorship have been instrumental in furthering PWJC’s mission to provide free legal services to victims of abuse.

The “Raising the Bar” Benefit Concert is PWJC’s largest fundraising event of the year. The funds raised will directly support the center’s critical legal services, helping more than 3,500 victims and survivors annually. This year’s event builds on the success of last year’s concert featuring the Indigo Girls, which earned PWJC the prestigious Best of Westchester award for Best Non-Profit Event.

“We are deeply honored to receive the Best of Westchester award for last year’s event,” says Kanusher. “This recognition reflects the strength of our community’s support and the vital work we do.”
