What is Change for Sam?
Change for Sam was founded in response to the tragic death of Samantha Fraser. With the recent successful prosecution of Sam’s perpetrator, our mission is to transform the deep impact of Sam's loss into tangible and positive change. We have developed an all-encompassing program, driven by the community, that seeks to prevent and address family violence. Our unwavering commitment lies in providing round-the-clock support to women and their families.

Together, we can honour who we’ve lost and those affected by fostering widespread education, active participation in community initiatives, and the creation of a safer future for all.
