YOU did this! SAAM 2025 Recap
Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) was uniquely challenging this year. In a world that felt increasingly full of turmoil, chaos, and uncertainty — where survivors and the organizations that serve them were under attack — YOU stood up.
During April, we saw a surge in website traffic and a record number of accounts created across a total of now 477 college campuses!
There have been more bright spots than we can count, but here are some of the highlights.
—Supporters got creative in rallying support for survivors, increasing awareness, and raising funds to support Callisto. Our friend Christina not only donated a percentage of proceeds from her Mine Not Yours candle sales, but also organized our first ever virtual 5K, inspiring students from around the country to stand with (and run for) survivors!
—Survivors spoke out and shared their stories (like Jane Doe) to uplift and empower others, and show them that there is hope…and that they are not alone.

—Students and Callisto Ambassadors organized, led protests, planned events, and found creative ways to let survivors on their campus know that they are supported, and that Callisto provides a FREE and secure platform where they can safely document a sexual assault and/or find others harmed by the same person…whether or not they report.
Whether you donated or fundraised, followed us and engaged on social media, planned an event, or partnered with us, your support made a tremendous impact!
Just because April is done doesn’t mean the fight is over.
We are determined to continue to ensure that survivors have safe options. And we could not be more grateful to have your support.
If you would still like to support Callisto, there is still time! Your support not only helps us continue our work, but will get us closer to our ultimate goal of expanding access beyond college campuses.
