New Charity Necklace for Women for Women International

Posted: by Jo Thursday, 21 February 2019 @ 11:06

 

Women for Women International (UK Registered Charity No. 1115109) supports women who live in some of the world’s most dangerous places.

We have created a fund-raising necklace in our ‘Mantra Changes Lives’ initiative, to support this wonderful charity.

The necklace has the powerful word ‘Sisterhood’ above our signature lotus, with the heart-warming and supportive mantra, ‘We are all sisters, by birth or by bond’. This mantra acts as a recognition of our shared humanity, and a message of support and solidarity with women the world over. This mantra celebrates women’s similarities, rather than our differences.

It is a powerful gift for your daughter or a young woman setting out on her journey in life, to remind them of the unique bond of women the world over; or a gift for your sister, friend or colleague to celebrate your close relationship.  

We are donating 25% of the selling price to Women for Women International (UK Registered Charity No. 1115109).

When there is an outbreak of war or violence, it is women who suffer most – they experience trauma, sexual violence and the death of loved ones. After the conflict is over, the world’s attention moves on, but these same women are left to rebuild their families and communities. In fact – it is more dangerous to be a women in times of conflict, than a soldier.

Since 1993, the charity has helped more than 479,000 marginalised women survivors of war in Afghanistan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Democratic Republic of Congo, Kosovo, the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, Nigeria, Rwanda and South Sudan.

Women enrol on the charity’s year-long training programme, where they learn how to earn and save money, improve their family’s health and make their voices heard at home and in their community.

The necklace is priced at £45 in Sterling Silver and £65 in Yellow and Rose Gold-plated. We are donating 25% of the selling price to Women for Women International (UK Registered Charity No. 1115109). From the sale of this necklace, we are initially aiming to sponsor one woman survivor of war through the charity’s programme.

The necklace is blank on the reverse to allow for personalisation, with a name, date or special word or phrase. A powerful gift for your daughter or a young woman setting out on her journey in life, to remind them of the unique bond of women the world over; or a gift for your sister, friend or colleague to celebrate your close relationship.  

Join the Sisterhood: watch and share the #SheInspiresMe film or sponsor a woman through the one-year programme for £22 per month and help change the world one woman at a time.
