I really like that “we’ve got your back”.
S.O.U.L is fabulous, too.

I’ll be sending a donation along. I really like the phrase-
we’ve got your back- I hope we can live up to it.

Great sounding goals. It will certainly be the first time any “women’s group” has actually got my back. I like the SOUL acronym too. I truly hope you can keep your focus.

What all women in the world have in common is sexism and patriarchy. 90% of rapes occur between people of the same race and economic class and it's the same with intimate partner violence. It's not to say women don't also experience poverty, homophobia, racism and ableism but no other national organization focuses on sexism. One can join other organizations in addition to NA.

NA is focused on opposing sexism and patriarchy. Of men, women and all races. No other national organization does this in a time when this is necessary. You can join other organizations in addition to NA.

Violet has been working on the online donations function. She got caught in perma-hold with PayPal over the last couple of weeks on a help issue, but we are working on it.

I went to the VAW Forum on Saturday and it was fabulous. And very well executed. Each speaker had something unique to say about VAW and all were impressive.

Thanks for putting this together. Will be making a donation soon!

Question – would it be possible to make online donations versus snail mail?
