Nominate AfH for the Amex members project
samara
Architecture for Humanity Headquarters needs our help in nominating a
very important project to win the Amex Members Project award for
funding from the $1.5 M Members Project Fund. They will be selecting
a total of 5 'Members Projects' for funding.
Architecture for Humanity and Lulan Artisans are partnering to build
sustainable weaving cooperatives in South Asia. This collaboration is
creating alternative jobs for women where the only current option is
to enter into human trafficking. In many parts of South Asia young
women are left with little choice in gaining employment.
Unfortunately thousands, some are as young as 12, are being
trafficked and lost to prostitution every year.
AFH cannot commit to this project without funding in place. Together
we are competing for the American Express Members Project fund. This
project is currently in 32nd place out of 1190. However only the top
25 make it to the next round. With less than two days until the
deadline we only need 300 votes to make it. After this project wins,
perhaps YOU could end up being the designer of one of the
cooperatives. If every AFH chapter member voted we would be in 1st
place!
Nominate here: http://www.membersproject.com/project/view/JAO706
or go to: http://www.membersproject.com/ and look for a project
titled:
End Human Trafficking Through Sustainable Livelihoods

If you do not have an American Express website login, just click
"Guest Member" provide a little information and you can then Nominate
and vote. Please show your support and forward this request to as many
friends as possible.
