June Women’s Open Mat and ‘Free The Girls’

Originaltext:

The June Women’s Open Mat is happening on Sunday! (June 9th, 2013) We’re hosting this month at Arashi Do Whyte.

We will also be collecting bras. Yes you heard me! BRAS.

You know, those bras in the back of your underwear drawer that you bought but they never did fit quite right? Well, they are bound to fit someone, so we’re collecting them to send to Mozambique to help the organization, Free The Girls.

Click HERE to visit Free The Girls on Facebook.  Learn more about this great organization and how it all works, how you can help and what it’s doing for women in Mozambique.

“Free The Girls seeks to offer employment to women who have been rescued from the sex trade. These women are set up with a free shipment of bras to sell in the second hand clothing market. Working in this industry allows women to go to school or care for their children around managing a kiosk. Bras are in high demand in the second hand clothing market and most women can earn 3 to 5 times their community’s minimum wage. They can work with other women in a safe environment with little interaction with men, as many were abused and used by men in their past…”

So come out and roll and bring your bras.  Make a difference in the life of a former slave.
See you on Sunday!
