No local + global community is immune to the reality of this PROBLEM...
Sadly, the injustice is prevalent...
Commonly, when a woman chooses to escape the violence they flee with the clothes on their back and possibly a few worldly possessions. It is our observation that these experiences and situations create despair and distress, a yoke of oppression. We believe that such adversity causes a woman to diminish her dignity. Whether knowingly or unknowingly, we pass these women in our everyday lives - while shopping at the local grocery store or when we see their heart-aching story shared on the world wide web.
Together, we can be part of the SOLUTION...
Power to Act is committed to create just and good solutions. We seek to provide opportunities to act justly and do good with the purpose to renew dignity by meeting the unmet + basic needs of women experiencing adversity in our local and global community.
We consider it unjust that survivors of domestic violence in our local community have limited means to possess practical + everyday products to care or address their basic physical needs. Women in our global community face unjust circumstances of poverty or sex trafficking due to a lack of supportive resources. Dignity renewed is having access to products that care for her physical wellbeing and empowering resources.
We aim to remove the yoke of oppression by lightening burdens and satisfying the basic needs of women in despair and distress. We renew dignity when we extend our hearts, identify unmet + physical needs, and provide everyday products that address...
