Montage Initiative

If you want to support a great nonprofit who is on the cutting edge of innovation and creativity, then check out Montage Initiative @ www.montageinitiative.org I am so excited to be a part of this amazing organization designed to help marginalized women locally and around the world. It truly is an organization that captures the heart of all those involved. 2013 is off to an amazing start! We were so privileged to present at the parallel event in NYC in support of the United Nations 57th Session of the Commission on the Status of Women in March. Our Student Advisory Board spoke on adopting a model of youth empowerment for future leadership and ways to take action. Ambassador Carlos Enrique Garcia Gonzalez, Permanent Representative of El Salvador to the United Nations also spoke in support of this effort, along with Dr. Giri and others. We also had a screening and panel discussion about the film White Rainbow based on Dr. Giri’s life at Fairfield University. Being a volunteer for Montage has changed my life. It is a humbling experience when you hear the stories and see firsthand the struggles that women still endure today. What is inspiring and rewarding about contributing to Montage, is seeing your dollars truly make a difference in the lives of others. Please join me in giving a 5 star review to this well deserving nonprofit!

Volunteering requires a certain commitment not only of time, talent and treasure, but a commitment from the heart. That is why I love volunteering for Montage Initiative. It truly is a rewarding experience on so many levels. Knowing that my contribution has an immediate impact on those we serve means everything to me. You can see the difference and direct result in any one of our program initiatives. I especially enjoyed working with the interns from Fairfield University’s NGO class. The students were a refreshing burst of light and energy. I am so thankful for the opportunities that my volunteer work with Montage has afforded me. I can’t wait until our next project!!

Now more than ever people are looking for cause driven organization that are truly making a difference in the lives of others. I know I was, and that is what drew me to Montage Initiative. They are changing lives around the globe, simply by using compassion, hope, and heart. They are providing opportunities for women that will allow them to be self-sustainable. I have worked with a number of nonprofit organizations, and non-have left me feeling as fulfilled and grateful as this one. If you are looking for a place to invest your time, talent and treasure, I can assure you that you will receive much more than you give. I know my life has been changed for the better through my involvement as a volunteer and donor. I am most thankful for the opportunity to be a part of something that I believe in time is going to help change the world, and create a culture of peace.

I have seen the footage from the trip to India, and how the efforts of Montage helped transform these women. You can see the hope in their eyes and since promise from their faces. Knowing that my involvement brings hope to another human being, is more rewarding than anything else I do. It is truly a gift from the heart for the heart.

How can you make changes to something that is already changing the world and our ability to help from all levels.
If I could change one thing, it would be that the need for such organizations no longer exists in our world. But until then, I am thankful for Montage.

From time to time, we are fortunate enough, to be presented with opportunities to make a difference in the life of another human being. The most gratifying aspect of this is that in doing so, your own life is enriched. Heart Share International embraces the essence of the human spirit. The work that they are doing to bring awareness and support to the widows of India takes humanitarianism to the next level. The honest conversations they had with the women & widows of India have the power to open even the most heavily barricaded hearts. If you want to be a part of something truly rewarding beyond measure, please join me, and help support this amazing organization. You to, can make a difference and help change the injustices of the world by opening your heart.
