OUR LAPEL PIN
The Lapel Button design is inspired by the powerful ancient healing symbol together with a heart
LAPEL DESIGN
OUR VISION
We have created a lapel button for men and women to wear in demonstration of their intolerance and defiance of gender-based violence, as well as their personal commitment towards contributing to a healthy and safe society.
The greater the awareness that is generated, the greater the force of collective consciousness to change our dire reality and to promote our right to live in a society that supports the freedom and the well-being of all.
Our collective voice proudly states that we vow to protect that which is vulnerable, sacred, rare and beautiful.
We are encouraging local and international organisations to pledge their support to this pivotal cause.
We also urge governments and institutions of higher learning to participate in the visibility of this campaign, and the distribution this message with its call to action.
OUR PARTNERS
We partnered with the Uyinene Mrwetyana Foundation, whose vision aligns with our own.
We will donate R20 from the sale of each lapel pin to the UYINENE MRWETYANA FOUNDATION in support of their mission and inspiring work that they are doing to end Gender Based Violence in our county in honor of Uyinene’s memory
