GUIDING PRINCIPLE
V-Day was created by artists and activists and as a result has a unique organizational model . Unlike many global non profits , V-Day does not have a central headquarters . Instead , V-Day ’ s small team works remotely from home bases around the world to sustain an online infrastructure that keeps the V-Day network of volunteer activists ( one billion strong and growing ) linked , informed , and engaged across the world . Through its virtual structure , V-Day is able to keep traditionally high overhead costs very low , enabling it to devote 90 cents of every dollar raised to programmatic work .
V-CORE
The V-Day Core consists of Founder V ( formerly Eve Ensler ) and a small number of full and part-time team members .
A much larger number of supporters and V-Day activists generously give their time and lend their resources to the movement . V is a volunteer and has never received payment from V-Day for her work as an author , performer or organizer .
THE V-CORE IS :
V ( formerly Eve Ensler ) | Founder & Artistic Director Purva Panday Cullman | Senior Programs Director
