GAME1 Collaboration -
Working together to achieve what we cannot do alone.
I think a real-world example for this is The Pandora's Project: @ www.pandys.org .
Shannon, at the time, a 19 year old woman who was a survivor of sexual assault created a message board for peer support of all types of sexual violence.
She now runs the only international support organization, which has grown to include a mail library, 24 hour support chat and other fantastic features. She has managed to gather tons of informational resourses and bring woman and men together to discuss and support each other.
Through the efforts they've organized retreats, and she was recently honored with a 25,000 dollar donation and the L'oreal woman of the Year award.
The collaboration, volunteers and support is phenominal and it has broken the silence for many woman around the globe.

Wow. What a determined young lady she must have been - to have survived something so terrible and to turn it into a way to help other sufferers. She embodies so many of the Evoke Powers - courage, spark, vision, resourcefulness... Good find.
