2025 Gentle’Men Against Domestic Violence Men’s Event

Gentle’men Against Domestic Violence® (GADV) held its annual Men’s Event at Grey Oaks Country Club on Jan. 15 with more than 200 men in attendance. (GADV) is an initiative of The Shelter that calls on men to stand as equal partners with women, to end domestic violence and human trafficking and create a community where everyone is valued and safe.

On Jan. 14, 2008, GADV held its inaugural Men’s Event to benefit The Shelter. Since that time, GADV has raised more than $3 million to help support The Shelter’s two 60-bed emergency shelters and more than 30 outreach programs that transform the lives of the families we serve.
