YoureWorthIt.org helps women in Central Africa

For the full website of YoureWorthIt.org, please visit this WORTH: Women's Organization of Rebirth Through Healing link!

The Women's Organization of Rebirth Through Healing's (W.O.R.T.H.) mission is to help women and children who are victims of rape in the Democratic Republic of The Congo to obtain proper medical care for both their physical and emotional wounds. W.O.R.T.H. is dedicated to the enhancement of the emotional well-being and self resiliency of the many that have suffered and are continuing to suffer in the Congo. It is the goal of W.O.R.T.H to provide assistance that will offer these women and children hope and allow them to transition into a better life.

ABOUT W.O.R.T.H.

The Women's Organization of Rebirth Through Healing is a nonprofit organization in the process of earning 501(c)(3) Status. W.O.R.T.H. recognizes the dire need to address human rights violations against women and children in Central and Eastern Africa, predominantly The Democratic Republic of the Congo. Our organization seeks to address and raise international awareness surrounding issues such as personal safety, sexual violence, displacement, access to health care, food and shelter, detention, and gender discrimination.

W.O.R.T.H. was established in 2006 as a passionate vision of hope by founder, Aria Maddox. In doing her own research into the violent rape crimes in Central Africa, Aria was shocked to find that very few organizations around the world were set up to directly help these women and children in the Congo. Even more appalling is the fact that the international community as a whole is paying little to no attention to the millions who have already lost their lives to the Congo war and the hundreds of thousands of others who are currently displaced and living in refugee camps. At these camps, they are without access to proper medical attention, adequate food and water, and shelter from the intense heat and torrential downpours; rains so devastating that they often completely wipe out the only roadways that lead to these camps, preventing clean water, food and medical supplies from reaching those who need it most. Aria’s vision for the Women's Organization of Rebirth Through Healing is to raise awareness, raise funds and eventually build a holistic transition house in the Congo that will serve to keep women and children safe while working to empower them in every aspect of their lives.

To help realize this ambitious goal and help bring her vision to life, Aria Maddox called on friend and philanthropist, Joy Plaza who she knew shared the same passion and dedication for social justice and human rights. Their shared commitment to this fight is the backbone of what lies ahead in W.O.R.T.H.'s future. But they do not stand alone. They stand alongside a group of strong and dedicated women and are also blessed with the voices of countless others who have stepped up and said the four simple words necessary to create change "How can I help?"

The Women's Organization of Rebirth Through Healing is poised to, not only reach the hearts and minds of those wanting to join our fight, but to put pressure on world leaders to take a stand against sexual violence as a weapon of war. It is a necessity that the G8 leaders and the United Nations play an integral role in intervening and putting an end to human right violations in the Congo as well as other war torn countries. One of our missions, with your help and through partnerships with other organizations who share our vision of hope, is to put pressure on world leaders and the international community to step up and fight for humanity.
