Yesterday was International Women’s Day. In an effort to honor the 100th anniversary of this powerful day, I took three moments of silence to remember and honor the young Haitian women I met while visiting KOFAVIV, an organization that supports women and girls who have experienced violence. I met these amazing creative young ladies during my Heart of Haiti blogger ambassador trip to Port-au-Prince, Haiti on February 26. A very special digital sisterhood moment happened during my visit. One of the young Haitian women and I really connected. We had some great conversations about her life and mine. Before I left, she asked me for my email so we could stay in touch. I promised her that I would stay in touch. This week I am planning to write her a short email that includes the photos we took together. Isn’t digital sisterhood great!
