t’s the month of giving, and we at SEEMA are always attuned to our responsibility as global citizens to pull one another up. So, we make sure that at least once a month (or once a year), we volunteer, participate actively and give in cash and in kind to causes that we feel aligned with. It is not right that so many people, including very young children, in the world go hungry, sick or alone at a time that should be filled with festive cheer and feasts. Let’s do something about it. In this section, we’re highlighting charities, NGOs and non-profits that are active, engaged and making great strides in furthering causes that we at SEEMA feel strongly about. This year, we are paying special attention to organizations doing important work in providing shelter, resources and guidance to women who are dealing with sexual and physical violence in their homes and on the streets.
