A very special thank you to the 14 women who helped make our September dinner a success! We shared delicious food and inspired conversation while collectively raising $336 to provide post-recovery educational opportunities to female victims of human trafficking in Southeast Asia.
We would also like to thank Helen for offering up her beautiful home in Encinitas! On that subject, we are looking for hostesses for October (Guatemala), November (Afghanistan) and December (Kenya). If you are interested in hosting an event this year, please email me at erikakeaveney@gmail.com to discuss dates. Hosting can be as hands-off or involved as you want…some people may prefer just to provide the location, whereas others may want to get involved in researching and presenting on the monthly program. Though most hostesses choose to contribute to the meal, you are not asked to share more than your home and your flatware :)
If you couldn’t make it this month, you can still participate virtually by watching the Somaly Mam Foundation’s documentary at http://www.theroadtotraffik.com/. If you are inspired to contribute to this project, it is not too late to do so here: http://www.diningforwomen.org/donate/program.
Thank you again to everyone for being a part of this growing movement in San Diego. Please stay tuned for more information on October’s dinner. If you would like to be included on our invite list, please contact me at erikakeaveney@gmail.com.
Hope to see you soon!
Warm regards,
Erika Keaveney
