Refuge is committed to a world where domestic violence is not tolerated or ignored and where women and children can live in safety.
The agency is currently developing a fully integrated Christmas campaign including mail, email and website microsite to launch at the end of November to the charity's database.
The drive will encourage donors to 'raise their hands' by visiting refuge.org.uk to show their support of victims of domestic violence.
Visitors to the site who make a donation can choose to write a message of support, which will then appear on a microsite specially created by CMW Interactive.
There is also a viral element designed to capture additional donor details.
Martin Nieri, CMW managing director, commented: "Refuge supporters already understand the devastating impact of domestic violence and the life saving work the charity provides.
"Christmas is a key time in the year when the charity asks them for donations.
"For this reason it is essential that the campaign we develop on Refuge's behalf has real cut-through and clearly demonstrates to supporters that their money makes a true difference to people's lives".
Lisa King, Director of communications and fundraising, commented: "We are delighted that CMW is working with Refuge to drive a really exciting Christmas fundraising campaign.
"Domestic violence is a serious issue that affects us all and we hope that as many people as possible will get involved in this activity and help us raise as much money as possible for women and children who need our services".
