OUR COMMITMENT TO SUPPORTING SURVIVORS
OUR PARTNER: PANZI FOUNDATION
Dr. Denis Mukwege (2018 Nobel Peace Prize) opened Panzi Foundation in Bukavu, DRC in 1999. To date, Panzi has treated more than 85,000 women.
Holistic Healing
Survivors often experience deep psychological trauma and are rejected by their communities due to the cultural stigmas surrounding sexual violence.
Dr. Mukwege developed the four-pillar “Panzi Model” of holistic healing, which combines medical treatment, psychological care, access to legal services, and socio-economic support through education and job skills training.

OUR C3 METHOD
Developed with support from MIT’s innovation ecosystem, our novel impact framework turns consumerism into a force for good.
By combining global awareness and the provision of economic opportunities, our C3 method has the potential to contribute to the reduction of violence against women and set them on a path to self-suficiency.
Communication: We make a lot of noise about violence in the DRC.
Capacity: 10% of your purchase funds job training for survivors.
Community: Our partnership with Panzi facilitates transparent impact.
