We
at Global Women Intact would like to thank "The Zellerbach
Family Foundation" for funding "The San Francisco
African Dance and Drum Festival," A three days poignant,
entertaining, and educational performances by master dancers
and drummers from Senegal, Mali, Guinea, and Gambia. Join
us for another event this year.
Thank
you all for contributing to the effort...
Thanks
to participating individuals, organizations, and universities
who donated funds, services, and time to Global Women Intact.
We are thrilled to have you as honorable members of our
organization:
We thank Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi, District 5 of San Francisco, for his invaluable contributions on March 19, 2005, at the “International Clitoris Day Celebration” in San Francisco. We wish you continued success in your field of endeavor.
On November 11, 2005, when Youssou N’Dour, one of African music’s most appealing musicians in the world, performed at Zellerbach Hall in Berkeley, California. Global Women Intact staged a Sabar Party (Tanebeer) for him, featuring the most fabulous drummers from Senegal and the Bay Area’s well-known DJ Omar. On behalf of Global Women Intact, we sincerely thank Youssou N’Dour for coming to the after-performance party at Shattuck Down Low in Berkeley. We look forward to welcoming him again to the Bay Area.
Global Women Intact would like to thank Greg Archer, Nancy Redwine, Hiya Swanhuyser, and Tom W. Kelly for reviewing our shows this year. Through your reviews, we were able to generate and send more than $500.00 through Western Union to support and assist women and girls in ending female circumcision within the borders of Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea. We were also able to provide uniforms, books, pencils, and other supplies to girls in order to enable them to get an education. We want to thank you as individuals who dedicated your time in supporting us and by exploring the bond that unites all people. We wish you continued success in your fields of endeavor, and hope you continue to support our organization to make a difference in the lives of women and girls and children around the world.
