Where this voice is heard, donde sobra corazón…

Within our feminist philanthropy program we present you a part where you can read, get information about women who inspire and motivate us! We share with you our two new interviews, with Ana Woolf and Brigitte Cirla.
We asked Ana: Why do you think it’s important to invest money into women’s human rights and arts?, and here is her message:
Because I think there is a lot of money invested in male stuff like war, weapons, and if half of this money could be invested in women’s rights probably the world would be different, childhood would be different, there would be less misery and poverty – and we would have to fight less for survival. We do thousands of things, we have three plus jobs per day, it would be a good thing to be able to concentrate our energy in protecting ourselves… economic protection is like a house.

Sisters Are Doing It Best…
|

Dear Sisters from RWF, your fundraising action for Noborder Collective, in café Ljutić, in the relaxed atmosphere, meant a lot to us. That someone locally invited us and offered financial support, enabling us to talk about our work and the migrants’ situation on the ground, gave us wings. The whole action and the strong community response empowered us and showed that our work is not that invisible. The money which was collected we used for everyday expenses like purchasing of petrol to drive to the borders, printing of info material for local people and the migrants, immediate aid in urgent situations on the ground, etc. Thank you for the support.

To a small organization with big tasks, like ours Stanica Service for contemporary dance, cooperation with the Fund gave impulsion and encouragement for public relations (for which we never had the time and resources). Action Sisters Are Doing It Best for our Kondenz festival connected us with a new audience and showed how activism, solidarity, socializing and PR could go together. The money collected was spent for preparation of the festival and honoraria for our precious collaborators like the photographer, driver, technician. Thank you Sisters, thank you the Fund!

On March 31, this year, into the premises of Social Center October a group of Nazis broke. Seven men with heavy sticks stormed into the October. Several people from our collective were hurt, some heavily, a number of windows were broken, the inventory tumbled, bottles and glasses crashed. Among the people who immediately sent their support were the dear Sisters. In the best spirit of feminist, antifascist and freedom traditions, they showed enormous care and solidarity, understanding that as a collective we needed some time to consolidate. In that vacuum the Sisters, by taking on some of our obligations, enabled October to continue its regular activities in no time, the space to mend and the wounded members of the collective to have a chance to recover from the attack.
In solidarity, collective of Social Center October
This year we proudly say that we granted 15,923,449 RSD for women’s groups, collectives, initiatives and stipends!
