Catwalk4Power: An empowerment project for women living with HIV

Anna Yakubu is raising money for Positively UK
In memory of Helen Danladi
Welcome to the Catwalk4Power fundraising page. All donations received go directly to building creative empowerment projects and supporting means of participation for women with HIV. We are very thankful for this support.

Story

Women with HIV and their allies started the Catwalk4Power project, because we wanted to create actions to address the silence around women and HIV. We created a platform to communicate about our lives; one that celebrates our achievements to our communities and the world. The creative workshops we have developed involve writing, performance, spoken word, crafting, sewing, strutting, and prop-building. We wear the costumes and accessories we have designed and made at a catwalk main event that we also create. It is a skills sharing, stigma-busting, educational, and transformative process for all who become involved. So far, we have taken our grass-roots project to London, Brighton, Manchester, and Amsterdam. We have also come up with an online toolkit so that the Catwalk4Power model can be shared and adapted in communities anywhere: c4ptoolkit.positivelyuk.org With funding support, we hope to continue this valuable empowerment project.
