Fundraising Dinner
The fundraising dinner is $ 100 per person with exciting speakers and an auction.
The dinner will feature "Voices of Men" an informative and entertaining multi-media play dealing with sexual assault and date rape, dating violence and domestic violence, sexual harassment and objectification.
The play uses humor, celebrity male voice impressions, and video clips.
The play is written by Ben Atherton-Zeman, spokesperson for the
National Organization for Men Against Sexism and violence prevention.
He was worked on prevention education for rape crisis centers,
domestic violence programs, and state coalitions.
Key note speaker is Patricia White, who currently serves as the Associate Director of The Black Church and Domestic Violence Institute.
Her critical work emphasizes the spiritual impact of sexual assault and sexual violence on women within communities of color.
Originally from Lexington, Massachusetts, she relocated to Atlanta almost 20 years ago to lead a national women’s self-help initiative for the National Black Women’s Health Project. She developed and directed programs for the Women’s Interfaith Center for women survivors of child sexual abuse.
