Background of the cause:

The focus of this years Helping-Hand Appeal is Gender Justice. Globally, The Salvation Army is journeying alongside women; supporting them to know their rights and encouraging them to take their place as equal and active members of society.

In Argentina, women who have experienced or are currently experiencing abuse at home have found safety, solace and support at The Salvation Army. Through group therapy sessions they are welcomed, cared for and listened to in a supportive and non-judgemental setting.

We believe that women, both at home and in society, should not only be able to exist safely but have the freedom to flourish.

The Salvation Army is taking a stand for women and girls, to see gender justice a reality across the globe.
