This project, funded through Global Affairs Canada’s Fund for Innovation and Transformation, enabled women who were victims of gender violence mechanisms to access legal and psychological assistance; enhancing their physical and emotional integrity, within a framework of justice and equity.
Sombrilla invites you to come join us for our annual International Dinner. This year’s event will take place at the Polish Hall on Saturday, October 14th. Doors open at 5 PM and there will be Live entertainment. Single Tickets are $55, or you can purchase a table for you and your friends – $400 for a table seating 8, $500 for a table seating 10.
In the last few months, with your donations and generosity, Sombrilla has been able to provide aid to families who most need it. We were able to help 58 families in the rural areas of Copan Ruinas in Honduras. Every family received up to $100 for food and sanitation supplies, which supported a family of 5 for up to 2 weeks. Families were able to buy rice, beans, and cooking oil as well as soap and other cleaning products.
“May God protect us and may this situation pass soon. I am very worried about the economic situation. My family has run out of cash. There is no work to earn an income due to the closure of the businesses.”
Community leader José Luis Velásquez in Copan Ruinas, Honduras
This couldn’t have been done without your support. We are truly grateful for the contributions that you all have made to make this possible. Thank you!
