Support our project
We need your support to bring this to life.
Why should I donate?
The greatest risk to sex worker well-being is stigma. Because prejudice, misunderstanding and censorship keep sex worker experiences closeted, and hinder community, financial, health and justice system support, Darling Darling aims to contribute toward sex work destigmatisation, humanise workers and contribute toward sex worker mental, physical and social well-being.

How your donation helps
Every dollar counts!
Every donation is a generous and will go a long way. We are humbled to accept donations of any amount. These contributions will go toward the production of the final story telling exhibition, communicating our stories with quality, integrity and care...creating an incredible cultural experience that elevates sex worker perspectives amongst our society at large
Give what you can
Inclusive storytelling
$500 covers an AUSLAN and EASL interpreters to accompany participants whose first languages are not English. Sex Workers are some of the most silenced people in our society, workers who experience inter sectional marginalisation - even more so. Let’s break down barriers to their participation.
$500
Reach the people
Web and Social Media presence is essential for reaching broad and diverse audiences - ensuring we share the stories of sex workers nation wide...even globally! Our mission is to humanise sex workers and their clients and we need a universally accessible platform to amplify these voice - to media, to politicians, and most importantly to our communities.
$2,000
Face out advocacy
It is so important to build safety and rapport with our participant cohort. This is best achieved when projects such as Darling Darling are led by industry peers. Out and proud sex worker, advocate, writer and sexologist Dr Hillary Caldwell wishes to co-facilitate our writing and reflective journaling workshops. This donation will cover her time, travel and ancillary contributions to our project.

Sex workers work with their bodies
In more ways than one. Your contribution will help fund sculpture fabrication workshops creating works together to exhibit in culminative works, immersive exhibition. Funds will be used to procure materials, tools and consumables. Participants will not only be creating art - but learning diverse skills in tool use, construction techniques and be exposed to new work environments typically inaccessible diverse community.
$10,000
Sex work accessibility stipend
Support sex worker participation by breaking down barriers to attendance. This fund will be used to contribute towards child-care and transport costs, as well as a participation fee to those who are taking the time to share their stories.
