La Maison des Femmes Saint-Denis

Mana x La Maison des Femmes

In Spring 2020, La Maison des Femmes Saint-Denis did a fundraising to grow their team as violence against women was on the rise amid the lockdown.

Thanks to your orders, 102 pairs of earrings were made and 1350€ were collected for La Maison des Femmes Saint-Denis!

What is La Maison des Femmes Saint-Denis?

La Maison des Femmes (The Women's Home) welcomes all women who are vulnerable to or victims of violence in Saint-Denis, France.

They created a confidential and secure environment, and offer appropriate care: from contraception to abortion, to FGM care, to rape or other forms of physical and mental abuse.

Why?

• One in three women worldwide have already been a victim of violence.
• In France, a woman dies every three days at the hands of her partner.
• 7% of women will be victims of rape in their lifetime.
• 86% of rape or attempted rape are perpetrated by relatives.
• €3.6 billion per year: that’s the cost of violence against women in terms of social welfare, care and production capacity.
