The Voice of Witness (VOW) is incredible nonprofit organization that speaks for those who are unable to. Many voices can be lost during times of terror, but the goal of VOW is to let these stories be heard. VOW offers programs and has a book series that captures many different stories. VOW wants to reach out to the community and let these stories be heard, and have so far reached over 10 million people.
I really enjoyed the mission statement VOW has, as it states, "Voice of Witness (VOW) is a non-profit that promotes human rights and dignity by amplifying the voices of people impacted by injustice." Through our oral history book series and education program, we foster a more nuanced, empathy-based understanding of human rights crises." I love that this is a place of support and the amplification of human rights. VOW strives for justice and dignity and I appreciate the work they put in to accomplish this. I am excited to read stories from the book and see this mission come to life.
