Im trying to help people to have the courage to do and say what they must do. I would love to help/

The problem im trying to help solve is domestic violence, I want to help women out of their situation and help them get housing if needed, help send the women to school so they can get a degree in something so they can become independant strong women. My project will also provide counseling for women and children to help the healing process. My project will also provide child care for women obtaining degrees or who are working in our program.

IM TRYING TO SOLVE THE VOILENCE IN OUR COMMUINTY

Whether it was during my summer in Africa working to raise educational awareness among women about HIV/AIDS at health clinics, churches, and schools, or while visiting the orphanages in Phnom Peng, Cambodia, or helping to build a community plaza in Greece in honor of a young girl whose death had recently brought the town closer together...in all of these experiences, the greatest problem repeatedly I experienced among volunteers, NGO staffers, think tank policy advocates, social entrepreneurs, and other change makers is an information barrier.

Unfortunately, the news has recently been dominated by instances of kidnapping, rape, and abuse. Although schools and universities require students to learn about physical education and art, schools do not equip students with basic life skills - especially the skill of safety. It is my goal to offer a safety awareness and self-defense course, Safe Girls, to middle school students across North Carolina and to make safety prevention courses a requirement for all educational facilities.
