The best Valentine's gift.
Topic: PSAs

I am strongly opposed to all things Valentine (with the exception of Sarah Vaughan's rendition of "My Funny Valentine"), most especially diamond jewelry and cut flowers. Instead of spending money on industries with negative impacts on human rights and the environment, give a gift that supports women's rights. It's much better than chocolate


"Love isn't how you feel.  It's what you do." 
- Madeleine L'Engle, A Wind in the Door

Show Your Love with an Act of Love
this Valentine's Day

Support MADRE's work to combat violence against women around the world, and show the person you love just how much you care.

Your gift will support women who have survived rape and are moving forward with their lives in Haiti and Kenya, women working to end "honor killing" in Iraq, and people combating all forms of violence against women around the world. MADRE will send you or your Valentine a beautiful gift card with a brief description of the powerful programs your gift makes possible.  Visit our website to learn more about these and other programs.
