I gotta tell you all about a group of women in my local. They take turns attending court cases involving domestic violence. Key here is that all cases have women victims. Statistics had tried to tell us that there was no difference in the way courts treated women as compared to the way men were treated...that is not so my friend, not so.

For my contribution to focus on empowering girls and women I joined a sorority. In my sorority we hold high ideals that all of our members must have to join my sorority. We help each other out by supporting different events that are put on within our chapter and we also raise awareness about cardiac care, which is our philanthropy. Did you know that the leading cause of death for women over 50 has to do with there heart? In my sorority we have fundraisers every year which we raise money for the Alpha Phi foundation which all the proceeds go to raising awareness about cardiac care. Once a year we also have cardiac care week at CSUEB where we table in the union and collect donations and inform students about cardiac care and what they can do to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

I contacted a local Women's Homeless Shelter and asked them if they would like to take advantage of a temporary publication opportunity for the shelter. They agreed to a pamphlet distribution that my aunt who owns a copy shop sponsored. In the pamphlet we will include the following information, and distribute it to Planned Parenthood, Kaiser Permenente (peds, OBGYN, emergency, departments) and also public libraries in the Hayward Area.

I texted and emailed everyone in my phone as well as told them to forward it to their friends the website of JOINWATCH so that they can either donate or mentor a child. I also got my little sister's friends and my little sister and started to have discussions about body image and self confidence. This has become a weekly thing and i hope during the summer more girls can come and more older people can talk to the girls. Because there is alot going on with their bodies and image perception and most don;t have others to talk to. So by talking to one girl you can open the door to opportunites. Give them the courage to get maybe become the next president or achieve whatever they want to achieve in life.

i did not make a monetary donation, however i have donated my time. I as well as classmates volunteered at a battered womens shelter. We assisted in a store that was an extention to the shelter, where living necessities were available. I was very touched by assising because we were contributing in turning these women's lives around, voulnteering our services. It was very uplifting to make a difference.

The real question is why?1- Separation of Church and State - Ataturk got it right. Ain't it funny that God was never reveled to a woman? The religions of the world put women down, and no one, especially women, should fall for it.
2- Reproductive Rights - not a man's decision, period. Even if you claim to be a decendent of Christ...no, especially then
3- Women in media - do all actresses need to show skin to succeed? Are women portrayed in healthy ways on TV and in movies? I for one want to relate to the opposite sex as equal partners, and women should promote a level field in this regard.
4- why should men be better? they say men are stronger is this true ? because women can carry heavier weights than men and for a longer time ?
5- what me and my mum say that it is because us women scare and/or mystify them they do not under stand how we give birth or why we have such an awesome power over them
thats what i think

yes this is true but in school its completely opposite. There are so many sexist teachers towards girls. Boys get treated like trash while girls get away with a lot of things. But In the adult world it is different. Just saying though. Men and Woman are intellectually matched. It really doesn't depend on the gender, but more the individual. Thats why we should give woman a chance in the adult world cause they can do jobs just as well, and sometimes even better

I have a daughter and this one is about her future. Three elements will make the difference and women shouldn't compromise on them:
1- Separation of Church and State - Ataturk got it right. Ain't it funny that God was never reveled to a woman? The religions of the world put women down, and no one, especially women, should fall for it.
2- Reproductive Rights - not a man's decision, period. Even if you claim to be a decendent of Christ...no, especially then
3- Women in media - do all actresses need to show skin to succeed? Are women portrayed in healthy ways on TV and in movies? I for one want to relate to the opposite sex as equal partners, and women should promote a level field in this regard.

In an effort to raise money on Global Giving, every day for a week, I will post a new cause for someone to donate towards. I will post the link on my Facebook wall and on Twitter. I'll encourage everyone to donate as well as share the link on their Facebook and Twitter accounts. If you can't afford to donate, this is a very simple and easy way for you to spread the word.

The first mission I involved in is empowering women as I have mentioned above. From a woman’s perspective, I am in tremendous favor of this game. First and foremost, I read a lot in WomenWatch. It is a real-time news feed covering women's rights. The story inspires me the most is about promoting girls’ empowerment through sport in Afghanistan. Although Afghanistan is a turbulent country, women also fight for equality in their way. Then in the action part, I invite my roommate Michelle to help support a social innovation. We tried to improve the proportion of women in legislation system. However, we raise very very little money ( too shame to tell you the amount --¬¬__¬¬-- ) which is helpless in our plan. Last, and is also the funny part is to imagine life in 2020 for the girls and women. In my imagination, in 2020, there will be a legislation system which established for women. Women can create some special law.
