RAINN Day Volunteers

RAINN Day 2007 the University of Arizona

RAINN Day is RAINN's annual campaign to stop sexual assault on college campuses. In 2007, RAINN Day reached 1,000,000 students in all 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico, and Canada with information on how to reduce their risk of sexual violence and what to do if they or a friend have been assaulted. Students and volunteers raised awareness through fundraising and educational events, volunteer drives, speakers, petitions, posters, and passing out RAINN Day cards and volunteer handouts.

More numbers from RAINN Day 2007:

  • 1,327 participant groups
  • 741 college campuses
  • 81 high schools and middle schools
  • 1,072,000 cards distributed
