Dear All,
Over the last two months, we've successfully raised over $6000 to support our girls and young women's programming in Jordan, as well as raising over $2000 for environmental Justice work around the work and winning a slot in the inaugural Climate Fund. To most these two areas of Justice work are separate and rarely have anything to do with one another, but to us at Life in My Days, utilizing a holistic Justice and Transformation framework we recognize that the two spheres of justice are connected in every stage and must be addressed in partnership.
To launch these incredible programs we ran a three day fifteen person Trauma and Transformation training, delving into injustices that most closely impact girls and young women around the world in Jordan and around the world and building frameworks to transform our society so that these injustices do not exist in our futures. This was followed by two separate trauma intensives, one for children and one for parents to build an understanding of how trauma impacts us and ways to move beyond our trauma. Lastly, we ran two full-day workshops around Building Relationships and Connecting with our Inner Child.
All this set the foundation for our work for the remainder of the year and into 2020 to hire our part-time coordinator, host our first Community Transformation Conference focusing on going beyond Patriarchal Violence, and launching our year-long fellowship for Refugee women.
Because of your support we've been able to reach nearly 200 individuals already, and we've just begun this incredible journey! Thank you, from the entire team at Life in My Days, and on behalf of everyone, we've reached!
Ahmad
