Violence against women and girls is a global epidemic that affects the health and economic stability of women, their families, and their communities.

At an individual level, gender-based violence and coercion is a gross violation of human rights. Moreover, a society that tolerates violence against women— where women are denied basic human rights and protection under the law, and where perpetrators of violence go unpunished — is not a just, stable society.

The FreeGirl Foundation, Inc., a not-for-profit corporation, was created to eliminate the dehumanization of women by promoting awareness and the prevention of gender-based violence and to empower women and girls everywhere. The FreeGirl Foundation is working to improve the quality of life of females by advancing their independence, security, education, health, self-reliance and freedom.

We are currently looking to create a theatrical production titled "FreeGirl" that will be based around gender based violence and will be an endeavor that will help us create awareness and at the same time put our foundation on the map. We are looking to identify a talented and proven playwright who believes in our mission that can help us brainstorm a plot and craft a script, dialogue, music, relevant issues/conflicts/ and character developement within the play. One of our team members is a multi-optioned screenwriter so you would have creative support and it would be a collaborative effort.

The finished project would make its rounds locally with the ultimate goal of it becoming a national major production along the lines of the Vagina Monologues or something similar.

Net profits will go to support The FreeGirl Foundation. If interested in helping us make the world a safer place for women and girls everywhere please visit us at www.myspace.com/FGFoundation and email Ron at freegirlfoundation@gmail.com.
