Say NO - Unite to end violence against women



This site - Say No Unite has lots of great information from around the globe: There are links to "Actions Taken" that you can read about. There is a place for you to 'Start an Action' ( Maybe it's climbing Mt Kilimanjaro to raise awareness or Joining religions for peace etcetc).


Here is a blurb from this website:


"Up to 70 percent of women experience violence from men in their lifetime. Let us count you in to make a difference. Say NO – UNiTE. Take action NOW to end violence against women!


Say NO records what individuals, organizations and governments worldwide are doing to end violence against women. The initial goal is to reach 100,000 actions by March and 1 million actions by November 2010. Whether you volunteer at a shelter, donate, reach out to students or advocate for better policies – every action counts. Let us count you in. Your voice matters. Tell governments that you want them to make ending violence against women a top priority. More than 5 million people already signed on to Say NO.


Add your name to this powerful call to take one action now and stay informed."
