Why are you Donating?

An incredible opportunity has found its way to me, that has me excited for the summer and ultimately my future. A trip to Tanzania, that will take place from June to August, providing valuable information to vulnerable women. We work with community health workers from the Olive Branch in rural Tanzania to deliver life-saving information about HIV transmission, prevention, and treatment to vulnerable women. There will be health kits provided to the women, and life changing safe sex and health conversations. This project is aimed at empowering women, and by empowering these women, they will empower their communities. I have been offered the position as Project Manager. I hope to raise money to better resource the trip and provide valuable support in Tanzania.

A little about ME!

Growing up in my house, everyday was a reminder how lucky and privileged my sister and I were to live in Canada. This reminder motivated me to make sure I used my gifts and education to help people around the world that needed it the most. My role models are the women that I grew up with, my mother, my grandmother, my aunts, and my cousins and sister. Ever single women in my family exude power, strength and intelligence. These women including myself are empowered by people around them. But there are many women around the world that do not have this same support. Information, and knowledge is power. By working with SID I am able to use my skills to empower women around the world. My passion and motivation are instilled in me by my family, and in my lifetime I hope to empower as many women as I can. As many of you know, my dream is to someday start my own non profit organization, and I will gain valuable experiences and skills to achieve those goals, while on this trip. Tanzania will be a great place to start working on my dream.

Thank you for stopping by!
