Violence against women and girls is *still* one of the most widespread human rights violations worldwide — and it’s not just happening “somewhere else.” Even in the most developed countries, women face harm, especially in a rapidly growing space: the **digital world**.

This year’s **UNiTE 2025 Campaign** shines a spotlight on **digital violence** — an abuse that’s rising fast due to weak tech regulations, loopholes in the law, anonymous perpetrators, and evolving forms of harassment fueled by AI.

📉 **Fewer than 40% of countries have laws protecting women online.**
🌍 That leaves **1.8 billion women and girls** without legal protection against cyber harassment, stalking, doxxing, impersonation, hate speech, online grooming, and more.

Digital spaces should be safe for everyone — and change requires *all of us*.
✔️ Governments must create and enforce laws
✔️ Tech companies must protect users and remove harmful content
✔️ Donors must support organizations on the front lines
✔️ **People like YOU can raise awareness, speak up, and stand with survivors**

🧡 **The UNiTE Campaign to End Digital Violence Against Women and Girls runs Nov 25–Dec 10**, starting on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and ending on Human Rights Day.

👉 **Join the movement. Share this message. Stand with survivors. Raise your voice. Together, we can help end digital violence.**

📚 Do you know how much illiteracy costs?
It’s more than words — it’s opportunity, confidence, and economic growth. Studies show that illiteracy costs the global economy over $1 trillion every year.

But the real cost is personal — it’s the child who struggles in school, the adult who can’t fill out a job application, the parent who can’t read to their child at night.

At Altrusa Houston-Central, TX , we believe literacy changes everything! 💡

Join us in making a difference — one book, one learner, one life at a time. ❤️

Today, we remember.
September 11, 2001 — a day of unimaginable loss, unbreakable spirit, and enduring courage.

We honor the lives taken, the heroes who rushed in without hesitation, and the families who continue to carry the weight of that day.
May we never forget their sacrifice, their stories, and the unity that brought us together in the face of tragedy.

Want to make a real difference in people’s lives? Let us show you how!

✨ September is National Literacy Month 📚

Literacy is more than just reading words on a page—it’s the journey of life itself. 💙
🌟 For children, literacy is discovery.
🌟 For students, it’s connection.
🌟 For professionals, it’s opportunity.
🌟 For retirees, it’s legacy and sharing with future generations.

At Altrusa, we believe literacy is the great connector—building community, opening doors, and shaping dreams. 🌍💫 Together, we’re spreading the gift of literacy so every journey is filled with possibility.
