We Speak for the Voiceless
Expression, Equality, Education—for Women Everywhere
FREEE:
Federation for the Right of Expression, Equality, and Education
Imagine a world where you have no freedom, no power, no voice. You are denied access to education. You do not get to choose your clothing, your friends, your career, or even your daily destination. You are bound by silence and law, living in constant fear for your very life.
This is not a scene from a new show on your favorite network or from a classic novel. This is the reality for many women across the globe.
You may think that women’s rights are only an issue in underdeveloped countries—but this is not the case. In such culturally advanced countries as Iran, women are denied basic freedoms and access to education.
In many cases, these women are denied the right to live.
Women the world over need your help. Will you speak for the voiceless? Will you help us empower the daughters, mothers, and sisters in desperate need?
Mahsa Amini: A Rallying Cry
The senseless murder of Mahsa Amini has dragged Iran’s extremist regime into the limelight. This twenty-two-year-old woman was slain by the morality police for violating the hijab law, an archaic mandate driven by mandatory religious beliefs.
Now, women and men alike are being brutally murdered in retaliation for the uprisings sparked by Mahsa Amini’s death. Iran is on the brink of civil war. History is being made—and the outcome will have a very real impact on women the world over for decades to come.
In the name of Mahsa Amini, we call for the freedom and empowerment of the women of Iran and of the world at large. Now is the time to act!
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower women across the world in tangible ways—to help them step into the freedoms that are their God-given right. We offer both long-term resources and immediate aid, with a joint focus on connecting women with online education and on creating safe spaces for women who are at risk as a result of oppressive regimes or cultural standards.
We can provide funds and make travel/lodging arrangements for women fleeing unsafe living situations.
We can help with US sponsorship.
We can advise on educational options and connect women with online resources.
We are committed to the cause of women of all ages in every country. Wherever there is a need, we are there to advocate.
