More big stars support Nicole Richie’s Support to Congo Cause
Well it looks like more and more Hollywood celebrities are joining Nicole Richie in support to the abused women in Congo.
That’s right folks, aside from Nicole, big stars like Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, and Sheryl Crow have appeared as guest hosts to the OmniPeace event with founder Mary Fanaro with their one goal to “Stamp Out Violence Against Women and Girls of the Congo.” The event was also attended by our petite fashionista and mom to Harlow.
Speaking to People to her new outlook, Nicole shared, “I’m all about making people aware and showing them what the problem is. It’s impossible to turn your back on something like this. It’s really hard to complain about anything when you hear the stories of these women and children and their torture.”
Meanwhile, Jennifer Aniston shared about her thoughts of the cause saying, “I am extremely lucky. But these women and girls need help – it makes you think.” Her Friends co-star and real-life bestfriend, Courtney Cox also added, “We can do something about this. I want to bring awareness to this.”
Sheryl Crow also shared, “I know I have a responsibility. As a mom, the biggest thrill for me, but most humbling role is raising my kid as a humanitarian. I want him to grow up feeling he can do something for people less fortunate.”
Well I guess this also has to be a wake up call to all of us. We don’t have to be as huge as these stars to make a change. In our own little ways we can help stop violence to women and girls in Congo by buying shirts from Kitson.
OmniPeace will donate 25 percent of the profits from the sale of the T-shirts to UNICEF & V-Day Foundation to build the City of Joy, a rehabilitation center and safe community for Congolese women girls. Tees are available on www.shopkitson.com for $78.
