Add Your Name to End Violence Against Women!
Target: Women all over the WorldSponsored by: UN Foundation, UN Development Fund for Women
One in three women may suffer from abuse and violence in her lifetime. Perhaps the most pervasive human rights violation that we know today, it devastates lives, fractures communities and stalls development.
We have begun to break the wall of silence by moving the issue onto public agendas everywhere. To bolster our cause, we need your support to show that there is an ever-growing movement of people who demand decisive action on ending violence against women.
The UN Foundation and the UN Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) have supported efforts to link activists and advocates around the world and show how small innovative projects can impact laws, policies and attitudes. This work is supported through the UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women that was established in 1996 by the UN General Assembly, and is managed by UNIFEM.
Let survivors of violence around the world know that they can count on us. The UN Foundation will give $1 to UNIFEM for each new person that signs on to the Say NO to Violence against Women Campaign.
Join Nicole Kidman, UNIFEM's Goodwill Ambassador, and add your name to the movement to say NO to violence against women.

I am a survivor of violence. My life as well as my body has been forever changed. No matter what measures you take now, I will never have my full mobility back. I may never feel safe again. Don't let this keep happening to women & girls! End violence against women NOW!

Violence against anyone, in particular women is horribly wrong and needs to be stopped. I support raising awareness and am happy to join the campaign to aid communities by giving them the resources they need to end violence against women.

As a counselor I see the impact of domestic violence on women, men, and children daily. If you are someone you know is in an abusive relationship, please contact a local domestic violence center today. |

This is for that poor child in Somalia, and for all abused women around the world. I only hope that this small show of support can help make a difference.
