This event wash hosted by Eve who is the founder of many nonprofits organizations. One of the most significant movement she is part of is known as v day which is a global movement to end violence against women and girls worldwide. https://vday.org/

In this event, she invited founders of other global activist organizations and performing artists to talk about the works that they are doing around the world to serve justice and make the world a better place. In this event, I’ve met a lot of important women from the nonprofit and activist field. I’ve met the co-founder of the organization #SayHerName who’s daughter was brutally killed by the police. I’ve also met the co founder of the women who is fighting against the caste system in India. Everyone was very friendly and humbling and eager to work with me regardless of my background knowledge and experience in activism which is very little to none.
