Corporate Giving and Volunteering
We offer in-person and remote workshops
We conduct workshops with corporations, hospitals, military bases and community programs who share our mission to support gender equality. Our workshop is a great opportunity to celebrate Women's History, Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Awareness months and encourage team building throughout the year.
​
Gender-Based Violence affects 1-3 women worldwide with a wide range of repercussions that often makes survivors feel isolated, shamed and alone. In the Traveling Postcards™ workshop, participants will create deceptively simple handmade 4”x6” postcards with messages of solidarity and compassion that will be gifted to survivors in domestic violence shelters or to survivors of violence of trauma nationwide.
Making art that is the size of a postcard is a non-threatening activity that everyone enjoys, and is a symbol of healing, dignity, and solidarity. The workshop encourages participants to find their authentic voice around an issue that can be overwhelming and helps them to connect personally in a positive and empowering way.
​
Your company's participation allows us to offer our workshops for free to domestic violence shelters.

"Thank you again for the incredible experience you have led our employees through. The last one had me in tears. I love that this is an opportunity to recognize our own healing (or need of) and sharing it with others. The raw reality has power.
I am looking forward to this again next year."
