Story
This year, in addition to serving the organization as a volunteer attorney, I am also supporting Her Justice as one of its newest Junior Advisory Board Members. I have raised money for Her Justice in the past, but this year, in honor of my new role, I wanted to add a little twist - I am committing to riding 150 miles on my bike by December 31, 2021 to garner more support. Feel free to track my progress here or via Strava and send me an encouraging note.
For women living in poverty in New York City, the devastating health and economic crisis is not over, and the road to recovery will be long.That's why I hope you'll support me in raising critical funds for the 2021 Her Justice Shift the Power Campaign a commitment to ensuring that women hit hardest by the pandemic have access to financial security, safety, and stability for themselves and their children through the civil justice system.Over the past 18 months, we have witnessed systems break down in the face of crisis, leaving women like Her Justice clients to bear the brunt of the fallout. They face lower wages and job loss and often raise their children alone, all while facing increased risk of abuse and exploitation.They are the backbone of our communities. If they do not thrive, neither do we.We are New Yorkers. We don't leave each other behind. Donate to #ShiftThePower today!
