Let’s build a future free of violence, together.
South Asian SOAR is raising $50,000 in the next 50 days to sustain our work to prevent and end gender-based violence in the South Asian American diaspora. Every dollar raised, up to $50,000, will be generously matched by the Ramesh & Kalpana Bhatia Family Foundation, doubling your impact.
As attacks on bodily autonomy and freedom intensify, and gender-based violence rises both globally and domestically, the urgency is clear: we must act now to build a future where violence no longer defines our communities.
