DiaryOfAWorm: Vote and Beg


Vote for Malya Villard-Appolon,
a rape survivor who co-founded
KOFAVIV, an organization that helps
victims of sexual violence in Haiti.

As a person who does not place much hope in voting in the electoral process at this time I am asking for your vote. Vote for Malya Villard-Appolon as CNN Hero. You can vote once or ten times a day.

Malya Villard-Appolon was rape survivor who steeped up after the earthquake and rape escalated in Haiti. She is not only a survivor but co-founded KOFAVIV, an organization that helps victims of sexual violence in Haiti. She is one of many Haitians who let down by the USA/Clinton/UN dominated government has taken her responsibility for change.

When I was part of the SOAWatch delegation to Haiti I had the privilege of meeting Malya and the women of KOFAVIV, Creole acronym that translates into the Commission of Women Victims for Victims.

My invitation to beg is for the Cry of the Poor Petition. We need to beg the Archbishop to use 1.1 million dollars he controls from the sale of three Catholic Churches in North Central Milwaukee for persons in need in the area.

So please Vote and Beg.
