Tyra’s Extraordinary Story
The Problem
A few years ago, Tyra, a single mom of two was struggling to make ends meet after escaping an abusive relationship.
Our Solution
With the help of a Soroptimist Live Your Dream Award, she turned her life around, went back to school and is now helping other women live free from violence through the non-profit organization she founded.
Our focus is on education because educated women and girls are:
less vulnerable to sex traffickers
more likely to leave a domestic violence situation and not return
able to access healthcare
less likely to live in poverty
able to raise stronger, healthier families
