| In conjunction with Hari Wanita
on 25th August this year, The Body Shop and campaign
partner Women’s Aid Organisation (WAO) are organizing
a ‘Walk of Love’ aimed at generating awareness on
violence against women and in particular domestic
violence; and raising funds for WAO’s Women’s Shelter
for battered women and their children. |
| |
| The ‘Walk of Love’ begins with
a light walk-a-thon around The Curve on the evening
of 25th August 2007; culminating in a celebration
concert at The Piazza area of the Curve. We are
inviting celebrities and female artistes of all
ages to perform for this worthy cause. There will
also be sale of fund-raising items for WAO at the
event venue. |
| |
| The theme ‘Walk of Love’ is
developed with a simple but strong message, for
both males and females, young and old. The campaign
addresses the need to speak out for women in Malaysia
and celebrate women as the nation celebrates 50
years of Independence. |
| |
| The ‘Walk of Love’ tickets
is sold in all The Body Shop stores in Klang Valley.
All proceeds will go to WAO, where it will be used
to fund temporary refuge centres, which provides
services to women and their children suffering from
mental, physical and sexual abuse. |
