A #CarrytheBag #SharetheLoad campaign tote bag.

One in five women experience abuse. These are women from all walks of life. They are not a particular kind of woman, or women of a certain age, race, faith, social, education or career background. They’re just women. And possibly a woman you love.

The #CarrytheBag designs challenge domestic abuse stereotypes, carry positive messages and show support for women experiencing abuse.

You Deserve Better
Many women are first abused during a pregnancy – and they, like every woman, deserve so much better. Sometimes we can be worn down. A woman in an abusive relationship will have her self-esteem eroded to the point that she believes she is worthless. Remind her that she deserves better. That she is worth so much more.
