In line with their dream of equality, Ladies with Vision spend hours interacting and donates to Western Area Rural Correctional Service as a way of marking this year’s International Women’s Day.
The day which celebrated last Sunday 8th March saw Ladies with Vision in their full gear interacting with female inmates at the Pre-trial detention and stimulation center, Kissi Town, Waterloo.
Ladies with Vision continued their “Each for Equal” activism on that day.
The ladies took along food and non-food items for the female inmates as well as inspired them to be strong despite their freedom of movement is been redistricted which according to them is not the end of their lives.
Ladies with Vision Founder and President, Madiana Mensah-Gborie said they feel equal like the inmates are feeling but they are with them to demonstrate love and care. She expressed thanks to God for enabling them to meet the needs of the female inmates and promised that their visit will not be the first and last but one that will be coming. “Not only on women’s day, but we also need to celebrate you and we continue to do more.” Ladies with Vision is a non-profit organization that comprises hardworking and highly motivated females working together to ensure national development by inspiring and empowering vulnerable communities in Sierra Leone. Ladies with Vision team educates and inspires the inmates as they believed in women, “We believe in our strength to conquer every situation and we believe that no matter your situation, you deserve equal opportunities to basic needs just like other normal women.” Kadiatu Bangura educates the inmates about nutrition, Mrs. Nanah Kamara spoke about hygiene and Safinatu Hashim spoke about stress management among other speakers.
