WGRAC'S CURRENT EVENTS PAGE
In mid-November, WGRAC and the Darfur Coalition hosted a fundraiser for rape victims in war-torn countries. With the help of much of the Trinity community we raised just over $1,000! We sent the money to Women for Women International’s Sponsorship Program (http://www.womenforwomen.org/sponsor-a-woman/sponsor-a-woman.php) who matched Trinity with three women we will be sponsoring over the next year.
Patricia and Angelique are both from Rwanda and Jummai is from Nigeria. The money they’re receiving will be split between job/skills training, rights education, emotional support and direct aid.
If you’re interested in writing to our three new pen pals, or just want to learn more about their current situations, please come visit us at WGRAC! Thanks again for your many generous donations!
