IAWF continues to work on the visibility initiative to raise awareness regarding Mahsa Amini, the 22-year-old woman who died in police custody, and the countless brave Iranian women risking their lives in the movement for women’s rights and freedom.
IAWF has taken action toward this goal by pursuing public visibility of the Iranian Women's Rights Movement through inquiring with major companies and/or buildings, putting together vigils, purchasing advertisements or billboards, visiting schools, and much more. The visibility initiative holds true to IAWF’s core values to Inspire, Empower, and Connect Iranian women around the world. Through public visibility, IAWF aims to uplift the voices of Iranian women in order to bring national and international attention to their efforts in fighting for freedom.
IAWF continues to pursue large-scale visibility projects in major cities. Some of our visibility projects can be found below or visit our website for more information.
Billboards in
Berkeley and San Jose, CA
Thank you to all our donors who supported our Women's Rights Visibility Campaign.
Your contributions helped IAWF raise enough funds to secure two additional billboards located in Berkeley and San Jose, California.
The billboard in Berkeley launched Monday, October 31, and can be seen westbound on interstate 80 and 580.
The billboard launched Tuesday, November 8, and can be seen off of 101 southbound in Santa Clara near the San Jose International Airport by Lafayette street. Highway 101 is one of the most congested freeways in Northern California.
IAWF has been able to sponsor numerous billboards because of the generous contribution of its supporters. The billboards support our goal to amplify the voices of Iranian women and increase national and international attention on the Women’s Rights movement in Iran.
We thank you again for your trust and generosity.
