Domestic violence prevention and intervention organization, Jenesse Center and its long time ambassador Halle Berry are proud to honor the Black Women Lawyers Association of Los Angeles Foundation (BWLF) at the Imagine cocktail party fundraiser to be held Wednesday, June 27, 2018, 6:30pm – 10pm, at the Wilshire Country Club at 301 N Rossmore Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90004.
Jenesse CEO Karen Earl said, "One of Jenesse’s signature programs is legal, providing comprehensive services to clients in the shelters, at our legal clinic in Inglewood, partnering with law firms and others to bring freedom though the law. We recognized early on that no matter how badly bruised emotionally and physically clients were, they could not concentrate on their “healing” with legal pressures weighing them down. BWLF understands the importance of this work and has supported Jenesse with boots on the ground, through philanthropy and partnering with our social enterprise projects."
Earl said, “Jenesse is so very proud to recognize the fabulous Black Women Lawyers Association of Los Angeles Foundation. This brilliant group brings their energy, influence and power to our cause in a way that moves mountains.”
President of BWL Foundation, Syna N. Dennis said, “The BWL Foundation is honored to partner with the Jenesse Center because of its unparalleled and passionate commitment to rebuilding the lives of women, girls, men and boys by offering life-saving domestic violence prevention and intervention services.”
Leaders from business, non profit, media, entertainment and government sectors are invited to attend. The event will shine a light on organizations and individuals who have moved the mission forward to raise funds and bring awareness to the issue, provide funding and relief to survivors and use their voice to stop the cycle of domestic violence.
The goal of Imagine is to elevate the conversation around the topic of violence towards women, girls and men and advocate the human right of peace in everyone’s homes, workplaces and relationships.
Jenesse Ambassador Halle Berry said, “One in four women will experience domestic violence in their lifetime. This is why for 17 years, I have worked with Jenesse first hand to bring awareness to this life-or-death cause. I am proud of the achievements we have made to heal women, girls and families ravaged by violent homes and relationships.”
