Can you imagine a world without injustice against women and girls, a world where they are free to thrive? Our dream at Fullstop is to bring injustice to a grinding halt ... a full stop ... so that women can be free to thrive ... a full start.
There's a huge knowledge gap in the developed world because the media rarely focuses on the tragedies of injustice in the developing world. We believe that knowledge stimulates action. A lack of knowledge stimulates ... well, nothing.
• Fullstop helps people LEARN about injustice issues.
But knowledge without action results in ... well, nothing. People often want to help but don't know how.
• Fullstop provides people with opportunities to ACT.
This action usually involves giving financial support to other charitable organizations that are engaged in relieving and overcoming injustice against women. Fullstop channels these financial gifts in their entirety from donors to charities.
Fullstop is a nonprofit organization based in Kelowna, BC.
