Support SJAF's soar hub
SOAR represents a decade of service to the great courage of female survivors of domestic violence and their determination to overcome major obstacles in the system. Our dream: The Hub will serve as the national base for SOAR services. The acquired townhouse will be a survivor-run, physical safe space offering the much-required infrastructure and information relating to all services, provided for domestic violence survivors and their children. It will house offices that provide SOAR support services, two small social enterprises, and a location for several SOAR survivor-led creative and therapeutic projects to enhance survivors' social, emotional, and psychological well-being.

Help SJAF support children to go back to school!
Every child deserves the chance to learn, dream, and achieve their goals.
As the new school year approaches, SJAF is on a mission to provide underprivileged students with the tools they need to succeed.
The Story: Meet Sarah. She's a bright student with big dreams, but her family struggles to make ends meet. Last year, thanks to your support, SJAF were able to provide her with a backpack full of supplies. That small gesture empowered her to excel in her studies and ignited her passion for learning.
Our Goal: This year, our goal is to raise €2,500 to ensure that more students like Sarah have the essentials they need to start the school year strong.

Capacity building / mentoring and support to improve social media presence
The Fondazzjoni St Jeanne Antide (SJAF) is seeking a company to help in promoting its mission.
Fondazzjoni St Jeanne Antide is a registered non-profit organization that is dedicated in supporting vulnerable individuals and families at risk of sliding into poverty and social exclusion. At SJAF, we understand the importance of social media in today's world. We believe that by harnessing the power of social media, we can help to spread awareness about our mission and engage more people in our cause. Social media remains to be an invaluable tool for non-profits to get closer to their audiences, share stories and encourage users to donate and volunteer. That is why we are reaching out to a socially responsible organisation that shares our values.
We are seeking the support in promoting our organisation on various social media channels by creating content, posts about our mission, and using hashtags that are relevant to our cause. By doing so, you will help us to reach a wider audience and raise awareness of about the existence of poverty and social exclusion. Your support will not only help us to achieve our mission, but it will also demonstrate your commitment to corporate social responsibility.
By partnering with us, you will be making a meaningful impact in the lives of those we serve and the broader community. We would be honoured to work with an interested company in this important endeavour. Thank you for your consideration, and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
