Womens Outreach

 

Reaching women who are vulnerable to exploitation and human trafficking is a key part of our work here at Because Justice Matters. There are a number of ways in which we do this: outreach events that reach women located in the Tenderloin district, spiritual and emotional support for women seeking options out of their situation, free nail painting as a tool to engage women, referrals and assistance for women seeking rehabilitation, services and housing, partnerships with other non profits and government agencies and various awareness events in the Bay Area.

Our next womens outreach day is July 17, 2010!

We will be offering live music, brand new pairs of tennis shoes and cupcakes! If you would like to donate your time to come and bless the women of our city email us and sign up info@becausejusticematters.org  Volunteers MUST sign up as spots are limited!

Event will run from 1-3pm, and volunteers need to arrive at 11am for set up and  orientation. There will be a lunch break before we open the doors at 1pm, so please bring a sack lunch or money to purchse food at a nearby store.

 

Manicure Anyone?

Having their nails painted makes every woman feel good! We are currently using nail painting to engage with women in the Tenderloin of San Francisco. Many of them are trapped in prostitution, drug addicted and needing time out from the pressures of the street. Receiving a free manicure enables them to take a break, feel encouraged and allows our staff 15 minues of uninterrupted conversation! This is a great way to offer spiritual support and referrals. Please consider making a donation of nail polish, polish remover or files to support this outreach.
