“Every day, I am amazed by the effort my volunteers put in and the sacrifices they make. I want them to know how much I appreciate their commitment and hard work. It is not through me but through their efforts that we’ve been able to service an estimated 17,000 people every year. Every day there is someone next to me reminding me why I’m doing what I do. I see myself in those women asking the difficult questions, They want to know where to go, they want to know how to get there, and how to do it. They crave fair treatment and equal opportunities for their children. All they want is the knowledge of how to stand up and how to dismantle the way society marginalizes them based on their race and gender. Today many of these volunteer women have built courage, gained knowledge, and fostered connections to secure their own rights, and resources for themselves and their families. I thank you for your commitment, time, hard work, and for standing with me”.
