This website and movement was started by Jackie Benning and Delaine Lambert English. With the help of our community, friends and local Friendship centre, it has become much more and belongs to everyone. Please use it to spread awareness, to educate, and most importantly: to end violence. Thank you to the organizations who let us use their pictures and information and thank you to all the people who made the YouTube videos that we linked on the pages. If you have questions, concerns or feedback, please do not hesitate to contact us. In the spirit of Friendship, #hugasister |
