Why This Partnership
Standing Together For Safer, Healthier Communities
YMS Common Ground is honored to partner with Purple Runway™, a community dedicated to supporting survivors, thrivers, and those impacted by domestic and intimate partner violence.
We believe that community should be a place where people feel seen, valued, supported, and safe to move forward. Purple Runway™ works to empower survivors through advocacy, education, community support, and holistic healing resources while advancing a vision of safe, healthy, and fulfilling relationships free from toxicity and violence.
Together, YMS Common Ground and Purple Runway™ are creating opportunities for greater awareness, meaningful connection, and collective action.
Our Commitment
5% Of Net Profit, Every Designated Experience
What we’re committing to
For each designated YMS Common Ground experience, YMS Common Ground will donate 5% of net profit to Purple Runway™ when that experience is profitable.
This contribution supports Purple Runway™’s programs and initiatives as guided by its leadership and community priorities.
Our partnership is rooted in the belief that real impact requires more than conversation. It requires community members, businesses, and leaders to stand together, share resources, and invest in safer, healthier futures.
How Our 5% Commitment Works
YMS Common Ground will donate 5% of net profit from each designated YMS Common Ground experience to Purple Runway™. Net profit means cash revenue actually received from the designated experience, less documented direct expenses required to produce and deliver that experience. If a designated experience does not generate net profit, a profit-share contribution will not be due.
Donations made directly to Purple Runway™ are separate from this YMS Common Ground profit-share commitment and go directly toward Purple Runway™ programs and initiatives.
Get Behind It
How You Can Help
Your participation in YMS Common Ground helps expand awareness of Purple Runway™’s mission. You can deepen the impact by:
Donating directly to Purple Runway™ through its approved giving page.
Sharing Purple Runway™ resources with someone who may need support.
Attending designated YMS Common Ground experiences.
Connecting YMS Common Ground and Purple Runway™ with sponsors, community partners, and mission-aligned organizations.
Following both organizations for partnership updates and impact stories.
If you or someone you know needs support
YMS Common Ground is a community market and gathering. We do not provide crisis response, counseling, legal assistance, or domestic-violence advocacy services.
For support and resources, please visit Purple Runway™’s resource page. If you are in immediate danger, call 911. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is available 24/7 at 1-800-799-7233.
