An Evening for the Women of Juarez and
Chihuahua, Mexico
Wednesday, April 6, 2005
Thanks to all of your support Spark raised $4,500 for the
following Juarez and Chihuahua, Mexico organizations, so
that they may continue their efforts to bring a halt to the
mysterious disappearances of young women in their
communities:
Centro de Estudios y Taller Laboral (CETLAC)
An
organization providing training and information to Juarez
residents, especially young women who work in maquiladoras,
concerning labor problems such as discrimination,
occupational health and safety, and legal rights.
Casa Amiga Centro Crisis
An organization offering
psychological, legal and medical assistance to women and
their families who have suffered from the violence.
Justicia Para Nuestras Hijas
A Chihuahua city-based
organization of mothers, lawyers and friends demanding
justice for the disappeared and murdered young women in
Chihuahua City and Juarez. This organization consists of
approximately twenty families. Justicia has sent mothers
across the world to testify about their experiences, and
assists with recently abducted women by making photocopies
of the missing and posting them in public places.
