The
Worldwide Campaign is a catalyst for mobilizing communities to heighten
awareness about violence against women and girls. By creating this
world community, the Worldwide Campaign strives to empower women
to find their collective voices and demand an end to the epidemic
levels of violence and abuse in their communities around the world.
In 2003, V-Day the global movement to stop violence against women
and girls went grassroots and global.
900 highly successful V Day Worldwide and College Campaign events
were held around the world. They were responsible for raising more
than $4
million through benefit productions of Eve Ensler’s ground-breaking,
Obie
Award-winning play, “The Vagina Monologues.” Hot on
the heels of their
success, San Francisco has joined this global movement as part of
the V-Day
2004 Worldwide Campaign.
In 2003, V-Day happened in 900 venues around the world. In 2004
(between
Feb. 10 and March 31), the Filipina Women’s Network will be
one of 2,000
events at over 1,000 locations around the world channeling their
creative
energy into making a difference as part of the V-Day Worldwide
Campaign. It is our intention to make V-Day 2004 San Francisco a
huge
success.
