Village Sensitization Update

By Michelle Jewsbury | CEO

These past months we hosted several sensitization meetings, which focused on awareness and prevention of domestic violence. The goal is to empower survivors to become aware of their rights as well as preventative measures. The last in Sierra Leone hosted 77 attendees in the villages of Bo and Golu. Additionally, we conducted a sensitization meeting at a school in Ghana with the Ark Foundation. Coming up this month, Global Giving is visiting our location in Sierra Leone during one of our sensitizations.

If you’re in the LA area, please check out our fundraiser with California Pizza Kitchen in Studio City on July 2. Also, mark your calendars for our first annual Fashion Gala on October 23.

Thank you for your continued support!
