Support Women for Women Mission

Our organization started after a brainstorming session on the grassy fields of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Fest.  In one year, we've rallied to nearly 500 active members! 

Our vision is to create a world in which all women determine the course of their lives and reach their full potential.  Through our woman-led, non profit organization, Women for Women, LLC, we focus our efforts on women's health, safety and education. Specifically, we support Eden Centers New Orleans, which focuses on eradicating the trafficking and selling of human beings.  

Eden Centers creates systemic change through youth prevention, education and legislative advocacy; recovery and reentry services for victims including long term shelter.  In fact, since their opening in 2011, Eden Centers has provided safe long-term housing for 83 women.  

WYES exposes the horror of the sex trafficking trade in Louisiana in the new 30-minute documentary TURNING THE TIDE: A STORY OF HELL, HEALING, AND HOPE.

The film identifies a growing team of perhaps unlikely warriors that has mobilized to fight. They include First Lady Donna Edwards, a group of Catholic nuns running a secret healing center, and three heroic survivors turned advocates.

The program is produced, written and narrated by Emmy Award-winning journalist Karen Swensen and directed, photographed and edited by Peabody Award-winning photojournalist Aaron Brownlee.

In shocking transparency, survivors of sex trafficking share their journeys into the depths of depravity, explaining with the clarity of hindsight what made them vulnerable and the dangers that lurk in our own backyard.

This month our co-founders presented a check to Eden Centers for $2,000 this month.  

Thank YOU fabulous members - you are all helping these women!
