Since 1917, on March 8th we celebrate International Women’s Day around the globe.
The United Nations has been organizing this day since 1977, every year under a different theme.  This year it’s ” A Promise is a Promise: Time for Action to End violence Against Women”.

Sadly, we still hear horrific news about violence against women, and numerous organizations and programs worldwide are fighting to stop these incidents for good. Let’s all stand together and fight for the rights and freedom of women worldwide.

To all the amazing women: Happy International Women’s Day,
